Autoplicity had them in stock as of 3 days ago. I ordered mine from AutoAnything, who told me estimated ship date of 9/15, so I ordered with autoplicity and cancelled with autoanytning... who then told me the shocks would be here the next day!

I just ordered mine from Autoplicity and he indicated he was low stock on the rears, I believe.

These things are in high demand... probably thanks to this forum!

Ordered two rears from Stage 3 on 8/11, delivered 8/16. They must have just ran out?

I ordered (5100's) from Stage 3 on 7/31 ... Glad I got them quickly! If you need something, have you looked at the Fox2.0's?

Yep Stage3 is out, I called on Thursday for a stock check and they don't have them. My local garage said that they're on national back-order for the 4x4 rears until the next quarter. I got lucky and snagged a pair off Amazon but it took a little searching for the correct part number.

Checked Autoplicity and they showed 2 'in stock'. Ordered them and then went back to the same page and it showed them to be 'out of stock'. Wish me luck. May have picked up their last set.

So I'm looking into getting a set myself but I'm wondering if it's worth getting front and rear? Seems if these are so good on that back end then they should do wonders up front as well?
Currently I have a AS leveling kit and don't really want to go through the headache of taking that all apart again. So my question is would it really even be worth it or should I just still with the rears?

I bet they will improve the front end. I went rears only, as I feel the rear end can use the help the most, and because I can easily install them myself. I am not displeased with the front end of my truck, yet, and I may eventually go with the fronts if I decide I would like the front end to be a little more level.
I have an FX4 that came with the GY adventure erated in 245/70/17 and I think they may look even wimpier with the front end lifted, so would like to wear them out a little before adding larger tires. Also, I am so happy with the mileage I'm getting I'm afraid to lose it with a lift and bigger tires.
