Re: best stock height shock
Tokico Gas Shocks (.com)....
I have used the Trekmaster R/T. It uses 'damping curve flexibility'. ( I read my box).... The shocks are lifetime. I have a second set. They said, "Come and get a new set- yours are over 140,000 miles old" . I did. I now have 364,000 miles and I might get new ones for the heck of it.. The shocks manage the big & little bumps very well. I love them! A great ride. This is my personal suggestion.. I just like them, and their customer service. |

Re: best stock height shock
(Not trying to push Tokico shocks)
But I like them. They make shocks for lowered & raised suspensions, with the same performance as the OEM lengths. |
