The stock shocks on my recon are about the softest shocks ever and run out of travel real fast. It's a GREAT trail ride. The only time I ever have a nice ride is on pavement or sugarsand.

What kind of ELKA's you got Dr.Dirt ???   Standard travel or long travel????

Those look like the new Elite quint rate triple travel w/ titanium springs, extra large cans and ZPS!

I didn't know those were out yet!
:o


:R  They are not available to the public yet, but I have my resources (President Bush) and got lucky enough to get them...Oh, by the way, they have the new Jell-O shock oil in them.   8)
