My friend just got these for his R. The ZPS system, which stands for Zero Preload System, lets you adjust the height the quad sits at, so if you want to raise or lower the quad, you can. The shocks also come with triple rate springs, each one a different stiffness, 1 soft, 1 medium, 1 hard. Each spring will respond differenttly to the situation-big jumps, small jumps, whoops,etc..
The ones that my friend got have 5/8" shafts. They look extremely strong and reliable.

They even threw in a "FREE" set of shockcovers with them, but hell, for $1000 you should get 2 sets!!

Hope this helps you out.

ZPS are the best shocks on the market. PEP are great. AXIS is saying, that their new "Pro-Series" shocks are really good too. I am waiting on mine. its been on order for 6 weeks. PEP's wait is about 6 months presently.
