Overland shocks?

I am close (saving money wise) to ordering Thuren front and rear springs for my 2017 wagon, already got track bars and front boogie bumps. Question is what about the overlander shocks, any body who has them please chime in. I am not a fast fire road/gravel road driver I do like crawling(that’s why the extra rear travel intrigues me) The truck gets drove to work if it raining and does do a little towing and hauling, but never fast paced. Any thought? Thanks

They are a great option for the money. I got close to 6 years out of my first set and just put a new set on in May. They are not an amazing shock but better than stock and for the price it is hard to go wrong.

Thanks for the thoughts I know if I was a jumper or fast driver or had a money tree the kings or fox’s might be the thing but for a conservative driver I was wondering about the overland shocks. Thanks again

I have had them for a couple years and I drive in a similar fashion to what you describe. I do some off road trails and tow a camper in the mountains. I think they are a bit better than the factory shocks, but they are not that great at speed. However, I like you, don't do any go fast trails with this big truck. For a stock feeling option, I think they are hard to beat for the money.
