I have the r shocks on mine and they're so good. Huge upgrade. But I also went with +2 aarms at the same time. Search on this there's a lot of people that will do it but I can't remember. but I know derisi does them.

The reason I never put them on, is because they are longer than the standard EX shock, so w/ std travel arms it seemed like it was pushing the ball joints right to the binding point when the a-arms were fully extended.

0.1" longer.. its hard to believe it would be too much of a problem..

Not trying to butt in, but why not buy a set of triple rate Elka Rec shocks for about $470 instead?

because the r shocks are fully adjustable with piggyback. plus you don't have to do it all at once. You can buy the shock then later when the funds are there get them upgraded.

This is price is for both fronts, correct? Not $180 per shock?
