what shocks to get???
« on: February 24, 2009 - 11:20:54 PM »
i read a few threads on different shocks and i still have have a question. i have the 90/10 drag shocks on and naturally they work great on the track but suck on the highway, especially in this crapy city. i live in grande prairie wich is all oil patch related so highway maintainance is not high priority, hell i think the fire trucks have a 6'' lift kit. since i'm to lazy to adjust the shocks every time i'm done at the dragstrip [cause i have to take one end off] i'm looking to get e set with a simple knob for adjustment.
 my question is wich shock is good on street and yet will adjust for the strip, i don't need viper handling just good dampning for those woops and dips on the highway.

I ditched my KYB's for the Eddys and never looked back

I went with the QA1's with the single adjustment knob.  They are easily tunable and work great.
