What shocks do the Mexican's use with RUF

Post by Damo »

What a motley crew :D

Have you guys used anything other than those OME buggy shocks on your RUF setups?

as in other shocks? No I didn't (past tense as I no longer own the Zuk :cry: ) but mine did also have hinged bottom shock mounts too

I had Rancho's in mine (99036's from memory) the shock hoops went through the inner guard.

A few people use the Rancho 99012. Apparently it's valved for a dual shock application for F250. Only running one on each side makes them quite suitable for Zooks.

I've currently got these on my Hilux, at full adjustment they're too soft for Hilux weight but suit the zook.

I changed it :D This way when someone else asks the same question and Grimbo says "search" the title makes sense.

I've got 99012s for the back, just trying to figure out what I should put up front. Was thinking of going for something a bit cheaper to be honest.

early nissan exa rear shocks bolt straight into the original location and have enough length to allow for hilux up front as per what my bro is running....

cheap and easy.........

I will be running these on mine initially to keep costs down....

In the past before the RUF I also used 4runner rear shocks and some sort of Hilux rear shock up the front too

I've just done my RUF and the Bombadore shocks aren't quite long enough for full drop, other then going for expensive Rancho's what other options are out there. I'll check the sigma's and nissan exa's. Anyone one know a current price on Procomps?
