ProComp Shockies / GQ Patrol

Post by Spanners05 »

ProComp shockies, Just wondering what type people are using? and how they find them,
seem too have a good rep with patrol drivers.
cheers,
jeff.

Hey hey,

My old boy has es 9000's on his GQ shorty 5" lifted gq shorty (Came as part of the Binskin's F.A.T suspension). I paid big bucks for my tough dog adjustable to match the same amount of lift on mine. To be honest I would go the Procomps if I had my time again someone could explain valving etc better than I could, they just seem to work better.

Glenn Binskins Orange Shorty ute wore the same pro comp gear for 2 possible 3 outback challenges. So that should be a testament to the longevity of the product :lol:

Relatively cheap and I haven't heard bad things at all. WIN WIN !!

Cheers,

Jeremy

the tough dog shockies last longer then the procomps. and you can get tough dog shockies rebuilt when they wear out

had a 2 inch lift with pro comp shocks. i found them to have firm valving which suited me (i live in hills and the 4b cornered well)
I went up in height 3 1/2 inch and when i pulled the pro comps out they were in perfect condition
I think they are good.

Everyone always talks about rebuilding shocks but in reality i'm sure that by the time they need rebuilding most people would buy new shocks anyway as they would probably be dinted and look like crap anyway.
