    If your front end is way faster than the back end, you'll never know. The car steers just fine.

        I’m going to say that with Tony Jackson Jr’s reputation of being a constant chassis changer and buying the latest and greatest shocks from everyone that sells them that he probably doesn’t get the latest and greatest that he thinks he’s getting. His past practices have probably shot him in the foot with everyone. At the end of the day nothing he’s done has ever improved his performance.

          Very interesting! I don't know nothing bout him. Just figure Clanton would be interested in getting things rolling or might be short lived business.

            On their third different shock program in less than a year… maybe it’s not the shocks???

              3 shock programs in less than a year? I think its more the method than the shocks.

                Not what I would recommend at all. Pick one brand you like working with and work it out.

                    I was earning a living building shocks 20 some years ago. Very familiar with how they work.

                            Makes it alot easier keeping a ride when you got money out the yin Yang and don’t mind spending it especially when that ride is a ride that hasn’t ever managed to win enough to even think about funding itself
