    a TT or a Monster Truck run them too.


    No, When the bug gets its new shocks I'll most likely buy the 2.5 triples off of it and run them up front.

    I'd run the Icon Zeta bypasses up front if I were you. They are a killer shock. I've seen several sets of them and they are very high quality. Icon has really stepped up their game in the last few years. The Zetas should be a little less too because the resi is fixed to the shock body. Those are what we are going to be switching to

    i bought them used, and honestly they could have been a bit bent before i put them on... but i prob made it worse. the giant shackle design for us 1st gen folk is kinda weak...

    i'll get a pic later today

    Ahh, I gotcha. I was thinking of the shackles for the 05+ trucks. Those things are boxed and pretty damn stout.

    Looking forward to seeing the damage. :)

    ...too much shit to list.
    It would take a HARD hit to tweak them, but it's certainly possible. There's quite a long section from the top shackle hanger to the gusset. I'm guessing it bent there.
