Nice find. Those look nice, but for $90 you think they could have made them threaded bodies.

Let us know how they are if you get them. I'm gonna run the LSTs for now cuz I already have them, but I am interested in hearing more about these cuz the LST shocks are HEAVY suckers. I'd be interested in these if they cut the weight significantly.

What abou using 8ight T shocks instead? ANyone ever tried that? I too notice that the LST shocks are heavy suckers. Probably not going to use them on my BL conversion, just to heavy..

Nice find!

What about the new CRT shocks with a 16mm piston? their rear shocks seem to be pretty beefy too!

I hope i am wrong, but they appear to use a plastic cap!

I have a set of CRT, front/rear shocks. I will measure them up. They are very good shocks. Thanks for the idea.

Indeed they do appear to be plastic caps. Not really worth $90 IMO.
