Default Rear shock help

What do you guys run? Aftermarket or stock. From your experience is it better to have the stock rear shock revalved and resprung or go with an aftermarket. Also the only place I have found to revalve the rear is Precision Concepts. Any advice on where to get the work done would be helpful. Thanks.

I've ridden a rebuilt/revalved TCS rear. The stock shock is a good unit and is an excellent candidate for revamping from the likes of TCS. They do wonders with stock rears and are usually very fast in the turnaround.

Thanks for the replies. Do they have a website and is there anyone there who I should talk to in particular?

If you want, call TBR products @619-258-0834 and ask Brian for the number. They work close with TCS on their Bomb stuff so they can get the info you need.

TCS is the way to go. There is So Cal and the turn around is only days. I had my chain make a hole in my rear shock hose to the rezzy. TCS charged me $275 which included new steel braided line, custom revalving, and recharging the shock. $275 was the out the door price. They only took 4 days to fix my shock. They give you a riding survey to fill out so they know how to rebuild your shock best for you. I did not need a new spring because the stock one is the best for what I use the quad for.
