budget?

[southernford246]

for all 4 shocks about $350 but would like to stay a little cheaper

[Doug Heim]

If you find them for that price please let the rest of us know! Thats hella cheap!

[Rick S.]

Better double that........then add another $200

[Admin]

yes, you will likely spend 900.00 for the cheapest set of 4.

Ill sell you FOX Air Shocks for the rear @ $230 ea. free shipping. Charged and valved for the Piranha! Just bolt on.

The fronts I use to manufacture using a car shock with spring retainers and thread a rod end on the top. I still sold those for $300 the pair. I could only sell them at that cost when I made 5 sets to sell.

i have been looking at the fox 2.0 coil-over remote reservoir  but im not sure if i should get with or without the reservoirs

[Doug Heim]

Without (Emulsion) = $310.00 ea.

W/ Remote Reserivor = $380.00 ea.

That price is without Springs. Springs for the pair is about another
$200 - $300

Come to think of it I have 4 sets of springs in my basment dual rate set up(raw material = unpainted) with Edge Specs and Ill cut you a deal on the springs if you go with the C.O. Shocks.

[southernford246]

what is the spring weight for a piranha and how dose the dule springs help??

[Doug Heim]

I use 200 tender and 250 Main.

The tender spring helps soak up all the little bumps and the main takes up all the big stuff in a nut shell.

The Fox Shocks (like many others) have a stop that is adjustable so you can tune when you want the tender to stop the work the main takes over.

The Edge Spec shocks I have are more like 200# X 230#. Just a little lighter but probably better for the Piranha. I had those springs made for the Cuda which is a bit heavier.

I know you have a working deal now Doug, but i think you'd be amazed at what a smaller tender and larger main spring would do for ya... My drak runs a 110 and a 275, i added cross over collars and it really rides like a cadi...Do need to switch up the valving a bit, Experiment, you will be amazed...

[Doug Heim]

Thanks for the info. Yeah I do want to play with it some more once I get the chance...

Here are the Edge Spec springs..

[Admin]

Of course your motion ratio is a whole lot different than mine as well...
