    Thumbs up What shocks should I go with?

    I currently have Skunk2 springs, but what shock would go great with them. I would like them to be ajustable. Thanks for looking.

    Cool now in the pictures I only see that the front ones are ajustable? Are the rear ajustable as well?

    Yea, the rears are adjustable. They have a knob on the bottom of the shock. These are the shocks I got on my ride.

    Great shock but, don't pair them with something overly stiff like I did. I got H&R Springs and it is a very stiff ride IMO.

    I believe that Skunk2 springs will go fine with the AGX's.

    I've heard good things about AGX's I've also heard that koni inserts are really good.

    I believe that price is ok. I think I paid around $300-315 for mine when I got them last year. But, with everything being more expensive, the price here seems just about right.
