    we just had a discussion about this. Either one you pick is going to be good. l like king but they all make good products. If you get the same type of product you will get a very similar coil over between companies.

    Also didnt know camburg made a c/o?

    rear resi shocks
    and whatever wheels and tires you decide to run? or what else are the key components to one?
