Lol,now that's funny :lol: :lol: .I really like the air shocks so far on mine.but I never had any problems just running decent stocks on front either. I've never seen a front beam bolted on like that. Chad :mrgreen:

look if youre a serious hillclimber that doesnt like being showed up you want the cheapest shocks you can find all the way around your buggy, they wear out fast and floppy weak shocks mean your tires drop back to the ground faster, so my advice 4 you would be gabriels or kyb, dont do fox theyre more expensive and they take forever to wear out,theyre meant for baja and other long endurance races, shocks are where you wanna go cheap, trust me

It looks like he has a thru bolt to hold his arm on.
I dont think gabriel or kyb will support the buggy.
