Can anyone one here give some info.

Its easy for a shop to tell you what they think, but who has had them on there trucks and what are they like ?

Are they worth the coin ?

air shox are no good for the road, they will fade, there aint much oil in them suckers.

Fox, Racerunner, Radflo, Walker evans

they are all much the same concept, fox and race runner are much the same, radflo are a little more light duty, but are pretty neat and walker evans are all alluminium.

other than that, it depends what colour you want :armsup:

Mock :D

I thought about running these with coils and dropouts but am not sure yet.

Dont know if it would be worth the dollars.
