That's them. They are kind of new. I'll get the www and some more info on them tomorrow. I have high hopes for them. I have had problems with King in the past and was looking for a diff. shock when Lee N. offered these for sale. I went to the site and had a look then called them. Great people, wanted to know who was getting Lee's shocks, they keep track of them. Anyway we will know if they are good by the end of the 1k:) All 4 are the same, 3 bypass valves and 1 rebound valve. Also the reservoir will rotate so you can put it where ever you want it. We don't have the final weight so don't have the coils for the front and can't run coils in the rear.
The skins are mine, they are one piece from the back of the grill back. I've ran them on my racer for 3? years now.

Thanks for the answer! They look fantastic! I guess I didn't realize that you were running full one piece sides. May have to hit you up for a pair in the near future.

is it a double wall style like robby gordon shocks? sounds like a cool idea, little worried about piston diameter if they are like that, but that broncos probably going to be alot lighter than mine.

Wayne:

Those are Revolution Racing shocks: http://www.rrshocks.com/.

There are a few threads on them on RDC.

Here is a few more pictures. You can see the adjusters and locks on the top of the shocks. I do not know how they bypass the fluid. My guess is they gun drill the tube wall. The OD of the shock tube is 2.6" so not a lot of room to work with but several small holes for each stage could work.

seriously! any plans to produce those?

You can purchase something similar from Autofab or Stewart's Raceworks. They bolt onto the pinion bearing support bolts in front and onto two tabs on the backside of the housing that must be welded on.

looking good there chuck, did you make the ship date back east?
No Critter decided to add the above stuff. We are about done again.
The hood and grill will be here this week. We will finish the light bar this week and I think we will build a rear lite bar also. The 2ed steering column heim will be here this week also and bigger coil overs on the front.

we made a pattern when we built that one so we will see if we can build one from the pattern for the front. If it works out we will be selling them. We have not done the other side mount yet but thinking of using 2 weld tabs.

As Chuck mentioned Revolution Racing had some ideas we could not pass up on. This shock company is out to win and support there product. Ron, at Revolution Racing Shocks caught on to the excitment of the build and on his own gave Chuck and I some valuable tips. With Chucks experience on racing/Broncos and Ron's expertise with Baja shocks they came up with some tricky stuff that is going to make the Bronco better on the course. Thanks Ron and Chuck for all the hard work and deep thoughts on the project. Looking forward to picking her up.. : ) keep those pictues rolling Chuck.

Nick, We (Chuck and his team) are flat out!! We Recieved some gooddies this week and the guys are installing and retroing the parts on to the racer. I bet with in a week we should have a good idea when the racer can be picked up. I'll be passing through BC Broncos to visit on wed. on the way to cali. to pick up a mustang that is in Ventura. I'm sure we will make a plan from there.
