I should have mine back in about a week to tell you how it is:devil:

I'm also wondering how it compares to a rear elka?

on my 400ex i ran the TCS rebuild and i flat landed 110 foot tables from 20 ft in the air and it didnt bottom out and it took whoops like a champ. I highly reccomend this rebuild

Lets not get off subject please. Anyone tried an Elka and a TCS rebuild? Which handled better? Thanks.

I like elka. I think they sell a great product with excelent customer service. I just keep hearing everyone say their valving is not that good. I have two sets of elka, one on my ex which I bought a few years ago when they weren't so big which I love, and one on a 450r that I bought last june which I feel doen't feel like I know they should. So I'm not sure if I should rebuild my stock shock or buy an elka rear for around $200 more. Right now I am leaning more towards the tcs.

you will not regret getting the tcs rebuild. Tcs is a great company also and their customer service is pretty good too.
