Re: Staggered Shocks
Staggered shocks (one pointing fore, one pointing aft), as I understand it, are to control axle wrap on a leaf-sprung vehicle - one controls acceleration, the other controls deceleration (since the axle will wrap the other way).
On a four-link (or equivalent), axle wrap becomes a non-issue, so the shocks are usually mounted the same on either side of the axle.
