Just had some Sno Bear Shocks come in for service! It’s a little early but a good time to get these gone thru before the snow flies!

Just a reminder we don’t just do race car shocks. We can also rebuild Atvs, Sleds, and Snobear Shocks!

Gonna do a pre order on shirts, and then based on how that goes I’ll try to keep some in stock. $25 plus $10 to ship. Ve...

Quick note, if you have some shocks you want converted over to a dummy shock we can do it! $40/Shock.

Good luck to everyone racing today! I’ll be at the shop all day if anyone needs anything. Thanks!

We would like to know who would be interested in a shock trailer setup at the race tracks local to us? We would need to check with tracks first to make sure it’s ok, but for sure Watertown, and Madison providing they approve it?

We would bring our entire shock department in the trailer. We would be able to service and Revalve Afcos, along with revalving Integras,Fox,Penske. We also would do pullbar rating and rebuilds, slider rebuilds, spring smashing etc.

Let us know if that’s something you would be interested in!

Busy week here of shock work! Getting some last minute upgrades finished up ready for the weekend!

Upgrading one of our Modified clients to a new Piston and adding rebound adjustability!

Adjustability is a major advantage in today’s day of racing, and we don’t just sell you a shock and say to bolt it on. We provide a full sweep test of your adjuster, along with recommended settings and recommended changes for track conditions.

Adjustable shocks get a bad name because builders don’t provide a dyno sheet showing the sweep. All adjustable shocks have a certain window they work in. After that needle is far enough away from the jet you are no longer making changes. You may make clicks but the bleed is fully open and flowing.

We provide tuning support, documentation, and baseline settings along with recommended changes. We are finding adjustable shocks after the initial cost end up benefiting racers in the long run. Being able to make quick adjustments you will be able to feel in the seat. Other builders want to sell you 4 shocks for every corner sometimes even more. We have guys racing touring series that have 2 adjustables for each corner and they are finding that is more than enough! One fast and one slick option.

If your rules allow, ask us how we can improve your shock program. We use ONLY genuine Afco, Penske, ETC parts and we operate strictly within your sanction rules.

Our customers had another great weekend with several top 5 finishes! I received a ton of messages over the weekend from very happy clients saying we totally increased grip in their car and changed the feel for the better!

We received a shipment of new Afco pistons for our Modified Shocks! These have been in R&D for awhile now and finally ready for our clients!

We have received 2 price hikes in our shock oil in the last 2 months because of the ongoing situation over in the Middle East. So unfortunately our overhead has gone up a bit on shock work. Below is our updated price list!

I have a couple openings this week if anybody needs service, or needs some tuning now after running a few weeks. Custom work continues to crank out daily. I am still on a 7day a week work schedule here.

Thanks!

***New Product to kick off the weekend!***

Heim Joint boots!

I made these specially to fit trailing arms using 5/8 heims for Late Models, and Modifieds. Or really anything using a heim joint.

As you can see in the video they install on the car easily and are secured with a zip tie. These will help big time in making rod ends last longer, keep them clean and bind free during racing!

They are 100% covered and we made them big enough so there is zero restriction of movement.

$20 for 2!

Working on 1/2” and 3/4” heims will have them up on the website soon!
