depending on how much you want to spend I think
elka shocks are pricey but well worth it
never tried TCS or Works shocks as for
me I cant compare those with elka
I DO KNOW ELKA SHOCKS ARE GREAT FOR RACING

TCS shocks are very good and at least on par with the standard elka line.

Works or fox are pretty much the only shocks that are not as good as elka. Thats not to say they arent good. Works shocks are great for the price and work great for the vast majority of recreational riders.

So basically TCS are almost just as good as the elkas! and 200- bucks cheaper!!! Isnt that a steel. Is the difference big?

I also have a shock ? for you guys... I am planning to buy a-arms and shocks.. if i get +2+1 a-arms will the shocks be longer than stock? Can i get the shocks and run them on stock a-arms first or is it not worth it? How bout stock shocks on aftermarket a-arms?
- The reason for this.. i dont have enough money to buy both of them right now.

Just a personal opinion here, but I think Elkas are worth every penny. I have quad rate long travel w/ rezzies tho. Then again, I haven't rode anything with tcs to compare them against.. Oh, and in most cases, they are the same length, but valved wrong for different length a arms. If you did the shocks first and had them set up for +2, I think it'd ride really rough with stock length a arms. With mine, they were longer for the long travel suspension.
