What’s the cost and turn around to rebuild a set? Cause my truck can’t sit around. All the other things you mentioned are moot points though. My oems last me 200,000 miles.

>the road tractor is on the road

Any other insights? I guess the price of the meme shocks doesn’t make sense after all. Don’t ever enter into sales. Thread is dead.

>Why are you not running Kings?
mainly from my experience with Bilstein 5100s on my old truck, they were exceptional and lasted longer than 110k miles and 15 years with offroading 3 times a month. this black friday im going to pick up a set of 6112 and 5160s for the new truck. no hate for kings but they arnt what i was looking for.

Dumbass.
>King Shocks was born out of necessity, long before we opened our doors in 1996. The original designs drawn by Lance King back in the early 80’s were created to fill the needs of the top level racers of the day. Nothing existed at the time that could stand up to the punishment dished out by racers like Bill Stroppe, Parnelli Jones and Walker Evans

PENSKE are superior for road cars.
easy to maintain.
easy to rebuild.
quick access to the shock guys for questions on set ups.

ohlins are ok, but are a bitch to rebuild.
jRI can be based depending
JRZ seems like shit to me.

>>28110527
Bscause KYB gas-a-just already are king.

What are some other cheaper decent brands of coil over shocks? Thinking of building a figure 8 race vehicle, and would like to put decent shocks on it, but also don't want to cough up too much money into something that might get wrecked first time out...
>>
>>28110527
>Why are you not running Kings?
Regular shocks work fine for me. What I need is higher spring rate, which was fixed with a bunch of spring rubbers.
>>
>>28111550
Figure 8 tracks are all about massive engines to blast through the intersection.
It's flat track so suspension setups are just to slide around the turns and will be completely dependent on the angle of that specific track and vehicle you want to run- you're not going to get "this is best brand" until you get those squared away.
They typically tend to be the bastard child of a dirt oval car and crash derby land yacht.
