Ok anyone who has been on a ride knows the front shocks have to be improved ALOT the question is has anyone figured out a fix yet tougher shock of a ford escort or ford festiva 1989 dodge dart or heavier front spring off of a pogo stick or something. Im up for anything at this point lmao please post when someone comes up with something that is a big improvement thanks

I am with you! I have bottomed out on stuff that I could have rode a skateboard over.

Btw, pogo stick? That made me laugh out loud.

Why not do the 3/4 spring spacer like the 700 until the aftermarket catches up.

sounds good to me if its worth the time and it improves well enough. do the same directions apply to the 1000 as the 700's and materials?

I think the shocks are larger? Someone who has done it would need to confirm.
