    How do you like the 5160's?

    What rear shock were you running before?

    Stock shocks. They were topping out in some situations.

    Thanks for the reply, rat107.

    How do you like them?

    Sorry. Don't mean to bother you, but I might purchase some and I was curious what your experience has been.

    They ride a little better than stock. The main reason i got them is because i needed the extra length because of the 2" rear block.

    Nothing. It bolts on using an existing hole in the frame.

    Question:
    I've seen two part numbers for 5160's, as a right and left. Did you order one of each, or are they universal?

    I ordered from Headstrong. Price was pretty close to everywhere else I looked and they sent both part numbers.
