Are the shock shipped from you or directly from Elka. I live in Canada and they always add a big duty/brokerage fee added to stuff.

i dont guess any one thought to tell him you could send the factory shocks off and have them designed for the ride he disires
for less than a $100 dollars.

the yfz shock's are awsome but the springs are to hard

Where can you send them and how much can they be tuned. I was one of the A$$holes who bought them of of ebay for a 2005 suzuki 700 king quad 4x4. On my machine the are kind of soft. What I could use would be some one to tune them to my machines weight. I could also use a heiver rate spring. Does anybody make one. I know works is coming out with some triple weight but there to expensive.

Also this might be a stupid question but how does rebound effect your ride. i know what rebound is but what effect does the slower or faster decompresion do for you.

I also wanted to confirm that the top screw adjusts compresion and the botton screw with TEN writen on it adjusts rebound. Are there any other adjustment?

But they don't know that they are as stiff as Richard Simmon's wiener at a Ricky Martin concert.

Rebouund is how fast you shock returns after hitting a hole. Too fast of rebound your shock will be really stiff. Too slow and you shock will "pack up" won't return fast enough and you will loose all your travel. Suspension setup
