03 stone rear shocks
« on: September 29, 2016, 08:19:41 PM »
I finally got the stone up and running and noticed that the rear shocks suck, what would be a better shock, what are you folks running? My back says thanks for any info.                                                                                                            Bruce

This is assuming that you adjusted them out?  Lousy damping?

I installed the adjustable shocks from a 98 EV. on my 03 Stone.  They worked great and you can find them on ebay for a reasonable price.

 I was leaning toward  the hagons, I have a pair of sportster shocks I can try, didn't think about them, I have a little bit of adj. left on the stockers but they are harsh, have no problem with the front. Thanks for the replys.

The Sporty shocks should work.  You might have some clearance problems with the diameter of the shock.  If you already have them measure and/or install.  :thumb:  Priced for you.....time to compare and install.
