now I may be wrong but on my shocks this will move around in all directions

isn't this considered a heim joint or am i mistaken

i owned some TCS one time and they were great. they seemed to be better than Elka and Axis and i owned all three. i just dont understand why more people dont run these shocks, there miles ahead of the others when you consider the price!

I liked my TCS ZPS and everything but they were a pain to dial in with the high-low settings. Yea they are the best bang for the buck but are not as good as elka or Axis, well i havent ridden elka but i know they do not compare to my Axis.

a pic of them installed, ride report coming soon

i had some fitment issues when mounting, on the lower end, the spring is dangerously close rubbing on my a arms, i will have to shave the bushings to adjust how close they are

other than that, no other problems so far

Yamahablaster what are you talking about they don't have high and low settings. I doubt you ever had them, All they have is compression and preload/ride height
