Im pretty sure there single springs. I havent really heard that much about them but me personally would go a different route going standard travel suspension setup. Id get a revalve from GTT or Derisi and a set of good +2 A-arms. My 2 cents.

I have been looking at their long travel kit for Baja and tried one out on a Raptor 700. It was very smooth everywhere in the desert, bad whoops, crossing deep 4x4 SUV tracks, wind ripples, real rocky trails ... didn't jump it (not MX type jumps), but it was plush wherever I went. I am comparing it to my stock 05 R shocks, but I liked the feel of it...

I think that I will go with LT Elka/Houser or LT Elka/Laeger in the end, but getting everything in one kit is attractive. price seems competitive as well ... The guy that owned the 700 said that the build is good and fitted up real nice ...
