I need new shocks. What are some good aftermarket brands?

[fuddrucker]

Hi all.

I could use some help in the shock department. The front shocks on my 96 300EX need replaced and I have read that the stock Honda ones kinda suck. Can anyone give me any reccomendations for a good quality aftremarket replacement that are not too expensive. I don't do any jumping or racing, just trail riding. Lots of whoops and rocky trails basically.

Thanks!

Those them there ones Rico posted got my vote. They are top notch. If ya decide to get them or anything else for that matter. The Quadshop is the place to go.

you can find a realy nice used pair for 600 bucks and you will wait 1 week if that

i would say Elka, but you don't really need that good of shocks if you don't jump or anything, just get a good pair of works.
