Looking for some feedback on this line of product. Looking to purchase them for my 93 single cab to go with a small static drop i'm going to do. But don't want to waste money if they're not worth it as far as helping with ride quality after cranking down the torsions. I know they're supposed to utilize a shorter cylinder and shaft to compensate w/ out bottoming as quick as an oem shock. But don't know anyone first hand who used them so never got a look of them installed or riden a truck with them on.
They are the same length as the factory shocks, but that isn't a problem. The valving provides a stiffer ride than OEM, and I never had any problems with them. They did start to rust a wee bit before I thought they should though... after about two years...
I went with toxic because there inexspensive and i wanted my front tire to stop rubbing everytime I hit a pot whole. Installation went preety quick, after you get that damn bushing in. I used wd40 for lube and something or someone to prevent it from moving (my wife lol) and I stepped on it. Im sure there are better ways but hey it worked. During test drive i noticed it handled alot better while turning and what Litneon previously stated "Stiffer" ride. I had it installed a little more then a year now and havent noticed any rust. But spindles and drop shocks is a must
I have 'em on my truck, front and back. The ride in the front is great, but I also have Belltech's 2" drop spindles which make a huge difference. The back is kinda rough, it is lowered with 3" blocks and untouched factory leafs. So far no complaints with Toxic shocks. Lowered trucks are gonna be a little rough.
