Spring Rate and Valving setup are critical for a proper working front suspension for what you need. Why would you just buy a pair of shocks without knowing this?  [|] ::) :P -->

You could put them on and see how they work.  D?
Ain't ever seen it......but I have heard it.

you can always send them off and have them valved for your weight.  good buy at 202 for sure.  I have the same shocks except the springs are chromed.  Love them.

valving isn't much, but new springs cost a lot.

Well rider the seller was an Atv salvager and knew nothing specific about the shocks and for what I paid I figured if they didn't work out I could sell them for what I had in them or more pretty easily. Also with these the valving isn't a big factor as much as the springs are.
