Default works shocks for a warrior

I am looking to get a new set of shocks for the front of my 99 warrior and want some decent ones that werent to expensive. Was consdiering the works ones. Has anyone had any experience with these how they do and who has the best deal on them. Or any other brands i should look for. I broke one of mine today so im trying to find some fairly quick so i can ride again. By the way they will be used on trail and some mx riding.

any aftermarket shocks are better than stock warrior shocks.

Ive got a set of works triple rates on my raptor and they were a fairly inexpensive suspension upgrade. I am happy with them. A buddy of mine has the works on his 97 Warrior and it was definitely a good improvement. My personal opinion, I would spend the few extra bucks and get the triple rates over dual rates. Additionally, you can add reservoirs later if you decide that is what you want. Go for it.

Ive got Works front shocks on both my Warrior and Raptor and basically like them. They are reasonably priced upgrades to the stockers. For basic weekend trail riding and sport riding they do great.

If ya have any notions about racing at all you might want to spend the extra money on the Elkas, Axis, TCS shocks.

alright i think im gonna go with the works cause i dont really ever plan on racing a warrior and being competitive. I just like to go out there and ride with some friends and hit a few jumps here and there. On another note who has the best price on them that doesnt take for ever to get them? thanks for all the input so far.

I got a set of triple rate works shocks on my 07 warrior and I think their great. They were only 328 too. When I land off a like 5-6 foot jump all i feel is the back landing, the front is so smooth.
