    I've run 'em both. I have a slight lean toward ADS but no real reason for it.

    Oooo. That'll look really good. I feel like ADS might be made a little better but I can't prove that. Mine seep too. I'm trying to remember if I pulled them apart or not. I know I rebuilt my ADS and getting parts was simple and quick.

    haha thats the way i've been leaning but i wanted to see if there were any real objections. I havent heard of anyone having negative experiences with ADS. Plus being local is huge.

    Yeah, with Fox and King your getting mall crawler LT shock valving unfortunately lol. ADS is giving you shocks tuned for you and your truck, big expense for me to do with my Kings now.

    That settles it for me then. I've already talked with ADS a little. I'll get up with them once i push the button on these leafs.

    i disagree with Dave on this one.. .my kinds have been perfect for 50k miles!

    ADS will be cheaper in price, they are decent shocks..

    as far as the leafs are concerned. Shoot me a PM with what ever questions you may have, and add @osidepunker as well we can answer most of your questions if not all of them.

    Finally finished it all up. Went with ADS after some consideration. Biggest reason is they had a set of 3.0x16” bypasses sitting on the shelf, ready to go.

    Dirt King bed cage
    ADS 3.0x16” bypasses
    Deaver I96HD Leafs
    King 2x2 bump stops
    Dirt King bump mounts
    Dirt King bump plates/shock mounts
    Camburg shackles and U-Bolt plates
    Camburg Ext Brake lines
    18” limit straps
