Technical Best rear shocks for a hot rod

I am not sure if they still make them but A friend of mine loves these on his car. Hollywood Hot Rods had QA1 build them so they look cool and they work. Single adjustable for rebound/ride comfort.

 

They look cool wonder what they cost

 

I can't find them on their website any longer. I wanted a pair for the front of my roadster, the Bilsteins are fine but these look cooler and with the adjuster and QA1 quality...win win.

 

I'm trying some Ride Techs on my new roadster ch***is? Pricey but they have very high ratings. Could just be hipe, we'll see.

 

If there is no problems with how the suspension is setup as far as clearance, what you personally want in a shock and ride is trial and error . and can get very expensive. I have tried several because I actually drag race the coupe. I have some Bilstiens for the back but have not installed and made test hits with them. Every thing is working great. So if it is not broke I don't fix it! I will probably test with them this season , because I can't leave any thing alone for very long. Racing these old cars fast makes you crazy.

 

Not quite @pprather . A non gas charged hydraulic shock designed for a stiff spring will be tough to extend but easier to push in. SoCal shocks are gas charged and are great on a rig with not quite heavy enough springs. I used them on the rear of my 34 truck for this reason. The gas charged shock helps make for a more consistent ride and weight carrying capacity over different loads.
