Phatdad's or new shocks?

[str8jailbird]

I am still patiently (yeah right!) waiting on my order from Monday. I see that it will be in Fiday or close to it. My qyestion is I can't order the Phatdad shock shaft kits from Rob yet as he is sold out. I started thinking about just ordering the parts to make my own kits but that isn't cost effective. Has anyone tried any other aftermarket shocks like the RC4WD's? Just wondering. I am going to wait until Rob get's them back in to order but I was just curious. I have a 5BSS that is slightly modded (yeah now over $2200 in it) and I know a lot of guys run the RC4WD's, GH's and a few others. I love the stockers that came on the SS and never had a problem. I even considered ordering 2 sets of the fronts to put on the Rampage, but again I have already spent over 2 grand in the lsat 3 days on these 2 RC's so I need to reign it in a little! Thank you Uncle Sam for giving me some of my paycheck back!

Here's a thread about using 5b SS front shocks.

I sebt them an e-mail to see when they would have them in stock and unfortunately I also asked Rob from Rampage Hop-ups. Rob said it could be a month because they are on the back burner. Hope the stockers last for a while.
