FIREFLEX ENFORCER and KC Shocks

Post by Rick »

Need new shocks on an F75 Rocky. The recommendations to date have been to go with either KC shocks or the enforcer units. If anyone has any feedback on either of these two it would be appreciated.
The usage will predominately be blacktop with the odd bit of offroad. Planning on a trip to the Cape next year but we will be taking it easy, very easy.
Regards
Rick

Rick, have you thought about other brands?

Koni and Bilstein are both very good if your budget can stetch that far. I've got Bilsteins on the Feroza and am very happy with them.

OK forget Koni- just checked their listing and they don't make any to suit....

For Bilstein check here:

They list Bilsteins to fit:

Wildcat/Rocky/Fourtrak

Thanks for that.
Will check the prices out tomorrow, but they are probably way out of my league price wise. There is no doubting their quality as I have them on other cars I have, but I am severely short of that folding stuff at the moment. We will see.

Yes they are expensive- mine were $200 ea installing them myself.

I guess the Rocky ones will be roughly the same price.

Both the enforcers and KC units were around $90 ea but the old addage probably is true in that you get what u pay for
