Anyone ever heard of these (Item # 260021370135)? I was browsing ebay and found them. I am planning on doing some suspention work would and was looking for some feedback. Been looking at Works, Elkas, and now these. Nothing special, just want something decent. Can someone shed some light on my situation?

I've never ridden those shocks and don't know any one that has.
Personally I think if your going to spend $300 on ebay for shocks you should wait a little longer and find a good set of used axis, elka, pep, or ohlins. you could probably get some awesome shocks for around $300-$500 if you wait long enough. Take your time and be patient and you could make out like a bandit with elka triple rates with remote rezzies for around $350.

Thanks for the responses. I think I am gonna keep searching for a set of Elkas. It is what I really wanted in the first place, better not settle for less again. How would a set of standard Elkas perform on +2+1 arms. What would suggest for this set-up? I have been considering Laeger arms with Lonestar axle in the rear. I honestly don't know squat when it comes to suspention, just looking for input.

+2+1 - is that upper lower length ? ? Meaning giving you more camber ??

just wondered .

+2 wider on each side, +1 forward (wheels positioned 1" farther forward).

If you're on a budget, I would probably get a new pair of Elka recreation series shocks, and then add reservoirs down the road when you have a little more money. When you buy used, you can't really tell what condition they're in, and they're usually not set up right. By the time you get them refurbished and set up properly, you could have bought new.
