Looking to replace my stock shocks soon. I know works are the least expensive. But what is the best shock you can possibly buy??

TRY LOOKING AT ELKASUSPENSION.COM They are using excellent components and from what I hear are similar in quality to Axis at a fraction of the cost! A few people here have them and may be able to give you a testamonial!

Later,

But if you are on a budgit,try the new WORKS peggyback series triple rate shocks.They also have a 5/8 shaft compared to the regular works of a 1/2 inch.They are 700 and have adjustabale comprision.For 200 more,you can get the rebound for a total cost of 900.:devil :blah
