Shock Valving?

Postby ZOSO » Thu Mar 02, 2017 7:59 am

Im ready to start looking into shock replacement on the bronco. I really like the way it rides now with the RS9000's but they are far too short on the front and wont fit with the new shock hoops. So im in the market to run a single bilstein shortbody 7100 up front. What should I look at for valving on the fronts for a starting point? Im also want to do the rear in 7100's and need a starting point there. Any ideas?

Please share your results. I am hoping to get my adjustable coil towers/shock mounts built and will be needing some longer shocks.
