However believe that the Durango Big Bore shocks are 12.3mm compared with 12mm for AE and TLR. I think this explains why I keep looking at SE/TLR setups and think how can they run so heavily damped when they are running 1.6x2 when I am running 1.3x6!

Does anybody else have any thoughts or comparisons to this problem?
Thanks pistol,
Good points and questions. That is what I'm trying to figure out before spending the money. What PISTONS are people finding work best for them??
With larger shocks than say AE, does that mean we can go little lighter oil than their setups in comparison?? Need more homes for similar damping??
I'm indoor with big jumps. 2x1.6/1.7 or Maybe run 3x1.4 front and drill other set to 3x1.5....
