Re: Front shocks
Speedway bought AFCO. I would say they are less than a few miles from your business. Stop in and see what they have to offer.....

Re: Front shocks
Randall, I like the QA1's stocker star R's. They are single adjustable,compression is fixed and stiff, rebound is adjustable. My car leaves with the wheels 2-3 ft in the air and lands nice with these shocks. Not much bounce if any.

Re: Front shocks
AFCO's work great, easy to adjust also! Go with the double adjustable you won't be disappointed.

Re: Front shocks
a good friend just switched from afco to santhuff. night and day difference and he didn't need three sets of them ( one on the car, one in the trailer, and one at afco getting rebuilt), they were constantly leaking/blowing seals and would cause the car to do erratic things

Re: Front shocks
The Santuff shocks look awesome, but they are really expensive. If your car works good with something that is a whole lot less expensive, why spend the money?

Re: Front shocks
Again, Speedway is absolutely a stone' throw away from your door. Makes total sense that you can get personal service and the best product for the money at your door. Walk in and get counter service!!!!! Very rarely does this happen for many people.
Santuff is AWESOME by far. The wait and cost doesnt come close to the blue shock that you can have dynoed and matched in your own town in front of you while you wait..... instant success.... chassis1 |

Re: Front shocks
Santhuff is really worth the wait and cost. Rineharts Performance has a lot of Santhuff products in stock, if this helps you and need them ASAP, look them up at RinehartsPerformance.com They will be glad to help.
