Clearly, it doesn't.
Then why bring it up? :coffee:

Nice underdrive....JACKWAGON! Love it.
Hey, if the shoe fits... :smiley_drive:

Back to topic, For Jeeps, and it may be more than JKs but I know for JK there is a full blown air system. Nets you 6" of lift, Full flex and you can adjust up and down for what your doing. Its really cool, but for the life of me I cannot remember the name.
That setup is pretty cool. Bit too electronics-heavy for my liking, but considering what it does there's pretty much no way around that part. Aren't some of the new more performance-oriented Dodge trucks also riding on 4-corner air in a similar fashion? That "Rebel" thing comes to mind here... The 3500 DRW can also be ordered right from the factory with and auto-adjust rear air suspension, not sure if the SRWs can get it too but my point is the OEMs are (and in case of Land Rover have been for a while now) recognizing the merits of air suspension over traditional coils and leaves even in light-duty vehicles.

Btw ours is getting a proper always-on Bendix compressor in the next month or so, then we can throw in the height valves too and leave the thing to manage itself. Manual up-down will remain installed of course, gonna just lock the auto valves out when using the manual setup.

General observation. You seem to take the things I wrote negatively. Maybe 3 year old threads are actually "my favorite"

Jake, maybe I misunderstood you then. It's just I've seen this so many times, a thread that is really not all that old gets resurrected by someone who has something relevant to say or ask and eventually someone comes cruising in commenting on how old the thread is and how the "necromancer" should have started their own thread... Yet if they did just that, the very same person will tell them they should have used the search first, and if they feel like being assholy they'll even post a link to the very same thread suggesting the person could have continued it instead of posting anew...
