Congrats on the new shocks.

I am not sure if any of these Blistein shocks are the same as you got, but $450 seems a little high for shocks. (unless they are special app shocks) I got the Rough Country for $120+ shipping and have been happy with them.

Whoops just figured out why it seems to high... I forgot that I had bought a few other things from the same place when I bought my shocks and looked at the wrong item number. The shocks themselves were $69.95 a piece not the $105.35 price I was looking at... That was for another toy Im working on...

Your cost on those had me scared at first. At that price, that's not something I want to have to be replacing. But glad to hear that they are cheaper than that.

Yeah, I had ordered the set of 4 bilsteins and a set of 4 new street tires for our 250cc go-kart at the sametime (street legal, licensed and insured, top speed of 75mph which is scary as hell with the off road type tires we had on them). Anyway when I glanced ar the reciept I saw the set of 4 and then the part number and thought it was them....
