All aftermarket parts are costly.
You have to pay to play.

I'm not breaking balls, just amazing how much some of these aftermarket parts cost.

There is a difference in a few things.
1) You are comparing OEM replacement parts to aftermarket parts.
2) These OEM parts are mass produced.

Lets not be stupid and compare aftermarket car shocks/struts to ATV struts.

The Eibach Pro Kit is over $2K and it just always height adjustments.
The Eibach Multi-Pro Kit is over $2750 and offers height adjustments and single adjustment damping.
http://performance-suspension-eibach.shptron.com/p/multi-pro-r1-coil-over-kit-single-adjustable-damping-ride-height-6


The Stage 4 Elkas offer height adjustment, high and low speed compression adjustment, and rebound adjustment.
Price is $2600 (You can get Stage 3 for $1500 right now)
http://www.elkasuspension.com/products/atv/atv-stage4/
These Stage 4 shocks are also set up for your quad, riding style and weight, not just a cookie cutter set up like the Eibach.

Now pistons

JE pistons for a SBC is $792. http://www.jepistons.com/Products/217240.aspx
Wiseco Piston for a SBC is $98.86. http://autoplicity.com/1212377-wiseco-pistons-piston-shelf-stock-chevy-sb-9cc-rdome-1060-x?utm_source=GoogleShopping&utm_medium=CSE&utm_content=GMC-G35-1212377GSMakeModelFitment&utm_campaign=GSMakeModelFitment&gclid=CjwKEAiA-5-kBRDylPG5096R8mASJABqEdm4lcUK1jPeHE5eChAPg7wnWUnjqjEsu5wCQu8GMBgJbhoCBMXw_wcB

A wiseco piston for a zilla is $100-$120ish.

Not seeing a difference in prices here.


So again, next time you should compare apples to apples.

"ON SALE?"
I work in the automotive repair industry and what gets me is, you can but 4 struts..loaded for a car and spend $500-600 for 4 ! I can't see how Elka,Works, etc.. charge $1500 for a set of 3 loaded shocks..

Wiseco is another that blows me away... $125-150 for a single piston!  where you can order a set of 8 pistons,rings etc. for $400 for a small block chevy motor and they will throw in a free gasket set.

They see this as a Hobby opportunity to gouge you!

might want to try ATV Galaxy.

They have Elka Stage 3 F+R for $1495.

http://atvgalaxy.com/elka-shocks-stage-3-front-and-rear-shocks-suspension-kit-sport-atv.html

If you use promo code bansheehq, the price is 10% off. so total will be $1345.50.

Only issue is on that page, they dont offer LT250 or LT500. So many calling them and see if they can make them.

Bump!!  Anyone needing a zilla rear shock and wanna go halvsies w/ me?  I need the front!!
Title: Re: "SALE" On Elka Stage 3 Shocks
Post by: Yuzuha32 on February 05, 2013, 01:40:55 pm
I was just speaking with elka about the custom lengths. as it turns out if it's a stock length we can mix and match a little.

for example:

If you are like Chris and have a stock front end but require a banshee rear due to having a drag swinger it can be done. just as long as the length you need is the same as another stock shock. 

I hope this helps a little guys.

Well anyone wanting a rear shock??

Post by: Yuzuha32 on February 04, 2013, 03:52:22 pm
sorry no custom lengths. this sale will last till they run out of supplies to the best of my knowledge. the price is for the set of fronts and rears they don't give me a breakdown between the two, that will be up to the people splitting them up.

How long is this sale on for?
Title: Re: "SALE" On Elka Stage 3 Shocks
Post by: Yuzuha32 on February 02, 2013, 09:31:12 am
not sure on front to rear since they are offering it all as a package. i suppose 50/50 depending on who you want to split it with. 70/30 maybe since there are 2 front shocks and one rear. on the rezzies elka sets them up for the machine. they will be piggy back or remote rezzies which ever works for the machine. this deal is open to all sport quads so if anyone has anything else that they want a nice set of shocks for cheap let me know.

I contacted our elka rep about the stage 3 sale they have going on right now. for a very limited time you can get full sets of stage 3 (front and rear) for 1255.50 plus some shipping depending on your location. right now a set of stage 2 fronts and stage 4 rear ( only rear available)  is 1504.40 +shipping. this is for both 250s and 500s get ahold of me if interested.
