let me introduce you to...one thing to keep in mind with the hellwig is that it's purpose is to increase stability through corners, but if you live in an area with rough roads and lots of pot holes it can make straightline driving more stiff/less comfortable. I'm torn because I want to reduce body roll but I also don't want to make the potholes feel any more harsh!
Fox 2.5 DSC.
crank them high speed and low speed compression up to max and that gets rid of a lot of body roll, and if taking the rough roads at speed your ride will feel great.
basically how I ran the million potholes of Dempster and Dalton doing highway speed. good thing there was no cops around lol
edit:
with both high and low speed fully cranked, I can also go up and down the canyons faster than 70% of the people out there. not my M car handling, but significantly better than majority of the trucks and cars.
then I added SuspensionMaxx end links. with the end links properly torqued, this weekend I was taking corners at unimaginable speeds. I was that guy in the memes of a ram truck tailgating people, flashing high beam to get people move out of the way, only this time it happened in the canyons instead of the highway. Still not M car handling, but i'd say it's about 70% there. feedback from my friends following me when I asked about body roll was "what body roll?"
offroad... with the end links, it does get a bit rough since articulation is sacrificed. but im not going on anything off-camber or requires articulation any time soon so that's okay.
