Alright,

I am not running front shocks at the present time, but am thinking about slapping some on there!

My question is:

How many of you aren't running shocks up front, and is there any reason why I should have shocks up front?

Besides having the sweet "cadillac hop"

Yes you SHOULD have shocks...because it is dangerous not to, it's illegal not to, and because there is no reason not to have them.

i dont have them the only prob i have is when riding low and hitting a bump it just floats. i dont like that float too much. i like a firm ride. i am going to put them on just have to order a relocater for it. i dont have them on front or back.

but gravity five its not illegal eveywhere. and its not like your gonna die if you dont run em. it will just bounce a little.thats all shocks really do anyways. keep you from bouncing on and on...

so if you take a ride to the dmv with no shocks it will be all swell and safe to drive


there is no reason not to run shocks. i think it's pretty basic, i mean what un-modified vehicle doesn't run some sort of shock or strut?


i have them on my truck, i've posted up pics a couple times b4

Yes it is illegal, at least in most places....And yes it is bloody dangerous to not have them, it can make the vehicle unstable in hard cornering braking and emergency maneuvers.

The only reason not to put shocks on anything is laziness...sorry but that is my opinion.

I know alot of people on airride that dont have shocks, they have never had a problem but in my opinion everyone should have shocks!! not only cuz of saftey reasons but they also ride better
