105 serires shocks for touring

Post by cspgq »

Im after some info and opinions on what people are running for shocks in there 105 series cruisers for touring. 2 inch lift, has draws, rear bar, steel bullbar with winch, three batteries two under bonnet one in back on right side. Iv had armada extremes and found them to soft in the rear. Suspension stuff mono tube shocks and they where good until they started to leak now have bilsteins and they are they worst only about 6 months old and feels like a boat. Was wondering about fox shocks and anthing else that anyone has good results from. Also has air bags in back. Thanks for any info.
