I was actually wondering the same thing. I am curious if there is that big of a gain if I where to get works triple rates with rezzies. Is it that dig of a difference in ride quality without +2 a arms?? Im looking to do this to my EX

here's my opinion
the addition of a triple rate or zero preload shock on your EX will make a 100% increase in stability, handling
adding the longer a-arms to the suspension is another 100% increase in stability and what not. I know my math doesn't add up correctly...I prefer TCS zero preload....what a difference the entire package makes...if you can afford to do it all at once to save yourself from the cost of re-valving and new springs to handle the extra leverage of the extended a-arms

I put Works triple rate shocks on my EX. I got them for $339 delivered. The difference was nothing short of amazing. A month later, I added Houser +1 a-arms, and it was like having a whole new quad.
