Better Rear Shocks

[JUS BIT]

I guess you would need to use one of their universal shocks that have the same travel distance and extended length. Also, the bolts would have to line up as well.

Let us know if you find anything...

I replaced my rear Aldan shocks with QA-1's (twelve way adjustable) and the difference is remarkable.
I may be doing the same for the front.

Iv'e done quite a bit of work with my rear suspension. If you interested, check out my post "Rear suspension problem (Lone Star) and others"

Posted today, May 5th.

I think I have the problem's fixed, and need to up date my post.
It's level, rides a lot better and I'm very happy !

I just replaced the rear Bilsteins with KYB Gas-A-Just and I'm much happier with the KYB's for street driving. The Bilsteins are REALLY firm. If I go tracking I'll put the Bilsteins back on.

Cheers

I put the Bilsteins on about 300 miles ago...they are stiff, I think to stiff for normal street driving. And on choppy roads under hard acceleration in second gear the motor revs (tire spin) on the chop. Sledge...Got a KYB part number? are these VW unit also?

KYB 5529. I believe they are for VW's.

Took it out for about 20 miles yesterday. Good launches, didn't puree my kidneys over bumps, potholes, etc.

Cheers
