Shock Question

Thanks for the info im in debate of to buy the bilseins or the hotchkis tuned fox shocks. All ball joints tie rods, bushings are new, have front sway bar and lower control arm braces and welded in sub frame connectors and she rides good with the kyb, will i be able to tell the diff between the kyb and bilsteins or fox shocks even considering all suspension and steering components are new?

Just something to think about. If you are willing to consider the Hotchkis Fox Tuned shocks at $550 a set. What are about the Viking Smooth Bodied Aluminum Double Adjustable shocks? They have 19 positions of adjustability (rebound and return). They are an amazing shock and the adjustability is very noticeable. I can go from a nice soft comfortable ride to a firm just by a few clicks. Now I know that they are more at $689 for the set but with the discount they would be $620.10. So they would be $70 more than fox shocks but you would have the adjuatability.

My opinion is if you are not going with an adjustable shock I would save the money and go with the Bilstein.

Thanks
