FAQs:
Q: Do I need to modify my frame to use these struts?
A: No. These struts are designed to bolt directly into your factory shock mounts—no welding or cutting required.
Q: Will this affect ride comfort?
A: Yes. These are rigid struts and eliminate rear suspension travel. They are intended for aesthetics and short rides, not long-distance comfort.
Q: Are these good for everyday riding?
A: Rigid struts are generally best for short-distance or show builds. For daily riding comfort, consider shorter shocks instead.
Q: Do they include mounting hardware?
A: They use your stock shock hardware for mounting.
