Yo man, I have full flights on my 96. They are strong, much stornger than stock. I am a rec rider, who does some small jumps. I am not going to come in here like most and say I just 30-40 feet. I don't. 10-15 MAX. The full flights are strong enough for me. I jump and ride harder with these a-arms than I ever could with the stockers, and I went through two upper a-arms (stockers). I had a couple of questioms when I was mounting them. I called the guy, he called me back and squared me up. I have no complaints.
Rezzies on shocks just hold more fluid, oil, notrogen, etc. whatever. They don't fade from heat as easily. I don't have rezzies on my works steelers, but have never noticed any fade or drop off. Buy Elka's or Works non-rezzies, you can upgrade them to rezzies later if you want.
