heres my question.
i just got a used set of 450r shocks for free from a buddy cuz he got a full front suspension with elkas for 700.

i put them on and it was stiffer over rough terrain but had good soft landings on jumps.
the next thing i'll be getting is +2 +1 a-arms, so would it be better to get the shocks revalved, or resprung
i will only be able to do one or the other.
the respring is a lot cheaper than revalve and i think it will handle better then a revalve with stock springs.

what do you think?

all 3 shocks done for $700 you cant beat it. Getting it revalved and resprung is the proper thing to do. People who just said hey got it resprung said it was an amazing difference and people who have the revalve and respring say its easily competing with some aftermarket shocks

i think ill wait til i get my +1 swinger and +2+1 a-arms to see if i need to get them revalved.
or until i get a job and the engine rebuild shop.
