Im running the Strange DA shock, for the money I think there are nice, but I havent had a chance to get them tuned in yet. I was impressed with the quality. I like the fact that the AFCO's can be mounted upside down to get rid of more unsprung weight. I also wish I could afford the santhuff stuff.
Re: What Shocks ??????
Santhuff stuff is nice but HIGH dollar $$$$$$$. I didn't think of Strange shocks I'll look into their's.
I think other brands can do the samething as the Santhuff at half the price although I'd like to have them their out of my price range.

Santhuffs are awesome shocks, but their base valving is noticably stiffer than the rest out there. We typically use Santhuffs on Outlaw 10.5 stuff and Afco & Strange on D/R stuff.

For Afco's, give Eric Saffell a call. He will talk to you about your needs and tell you what will do the job. His # is 1-800-632-2320 ext 202. Tell him I sent you.
