    I run the Doetsch Tech shocks front and rear. Rides and handles great. Even my coilover buddies are impressed.

    Does angle or mount location matter? As long as they don't bind up?

    Well, that's a loaded question. The further you get off vertical, the lower the effective valving. So no, it doesn't matter what angle they are as long as they are designed for it, but performance can suffer.
