What they all have is fully-adjustable , independent-wheel air adjustment dealies that eliminate the need for springs. It's like a smallerized version of the air suspension they use on semi rigs. In other words, you can adjust your suspension with increased weight with the touch of a finger.

Jim, sorry for being so lazy right now (to look it up) but I'm thinking the link you earlier provided left me with the impression the suspension was active (computer controlled) hydraulic.  As if there would be no shock absorbers since the "springs" themselves were constantly controlling wheel movement.

Got some bigger tires on the Wrangler now, too. My S-10 was doing a better job climbing loose dirt than the Wrangler was with its old tires, so it should be interesting to see it in action now. Pics are on the other camera....

It's always been fun taking people along for a ride and hearing them say "you'll never make it" just as you start up and "I wish my car could do that" as you barrel along.
