Thanks Kev for posting the picture

Few questions

- did you notice if they were externally adjustable for damping rate?
- they appear to be low pressure gas, can you confirm?
- there are springs for the front, did you see any for the rear struts, and can you confirm the rear springs are included?
- The rear shocks appear to come with spring collars, and therefore would be actual coilovers as opposed to the KW set of adjustable damper unit and seperate spring - see attached image - can you confirm actual coilovers in rear?

Thankyou Kev

zilla, it appears to be the same way with separate springs and dampers. Only true coilover up front. This from the SEMA Mopar brouchure:

Sounds a lot like KW Variant Is or the Eibachs.

How in the heck do you adjust ride height in the rear?
