They work fine Scott for cheap replacement of the rubber. What they dont do very well is control the shock movement up and down. I'm sure they help a little over the stock rubber ones in the side to side department but I also want the shock to have precise control up and down.

The Tarret jobbies are offset so's you can get more negative camber. Those other ones don't appear to do that.

Are you just getting a piece of machined plastic for your $109.00?
Or is it installed in a housing? Paul |

someone said:
"They are not exactly cheap, though... " & "Compared to the Tarett's they are" so, how much does the Taret set-up go for? |
