My front end bottoms out when I land after major air.The shocks are at stiffest(full extention).Are there any primo shocks to solve this and save my wrists?

If your shocks are at "full extension" that means you have the preload set to the softest setting.Turn that bottom piece that looks like a bunch of ups and downs until the shocks are compressed their furthest, then you will have the stiffest setting.

I gave up trying to adjust my blaster shocks to help. I ended up putting a set of factory banshee shocks on the front. They bolted right up and work awsome. Inexpensive to if you find some used ones.

Front Blaster shocks arent the best...especially if you buy extended a-arms....I replaced mine with TCS front shocks from CT racing....their not cheap $650 but work awesome...its impossible to bottom the front even landing front first. We have a big cinder hill we jump about 60ft in distance not too sure how high we are.

I also have the TCS shocks and they are worlds better than the stockers.
