Hey guys i run gncc and wont to go to a long travle set up this winter. I was wondering what u guys like (shocks and a-arms) and where is the best and cheapest place to buy. I have been looking at different places and would like to stay around 2,500 for the works. thanks

I run ars-fx/axis and love it. I really wanna try the fox shocks tho, maybe fox/houser.

ArsFX with ArsFX shocks or Fox/Houser would be my choices. I'll be running full ArsFX next year.

-- those are a great value buttttt he wants something for cross country with rut clearance---- sooo imo -- the houser max clearance or the arsfx would be great options---- never had any other shock than stock or elkas--- but i love my elkas----- not saying he should go out and buy em--- but if i was you i would ride a couple different bikes with different front ends to see which you prefer---- not just somebodys opinion on a computer.

theres a big hype about fox floats but i ran them this year and not to bash or anyhtign but there a pain in the ***. you always have ti check the air pressure n all 4 chambers after every moto/ ride. i switched back to axis and wish i never went to fox. just my 2 cents
