So when I got this quad it had dual rate shocks on it... not sure what kind. They DEFINITELY need a rebuild and the smaller spring on one is broken... I'm in the process of upgrading the suspension.
When it comes time should I try to sell them or just junk them?

And whoever keeps bidding on my extended swingarm, stop it! lol

If they are a name brand aftermarket shock you should be able to get a few $$ for them. I'd throw em on eBay and see what happens.

it depends on what brand they are. like for example my ohlins dual rates were awsome. so find out what they are and if a bette name brand keepem and have them converted to tripple rate.

p.s. i like your avatar:D

i've got some dual rate Axis shocks, would it be worth it to go triple rate and add compression adjustors to the rezzies?

Sorry did not mean to jack your thread

Well that's the thing, I don't know what kind they are... no name on them, they're white...

Those are older Works bodies.

TCS used to use them as well as a few others.

Could be redone to your specs.

I'll just sell them.... going to GDH arms and 400ex shocks.

Thanks.
