If I was on a budget I would buy the stock raptor SE shocks. They have a piggyback reservoir, compression, rebound, and pre-load adjustment. The works shocks are an emulsion shock that have no adjustments other than a few notches of pre-load. Plus, if you look into the future and you have the funds to upgrade the oem components that avenue is also open. If you have anymore questions please feel free to ask and I will steer you in the right direction.

So SE shocks are still the better choice even though they wont be setup for my a-arms, riding style, etc?

The works would be made for my +3s, my weight and riding style.

Thanks alot, i guess SE's are really the way to go?

Are you actually +3 arms or is it the bracket kit that just moves the mounts out?

I ordered a set of Works Triple Rate shocks set up for my weight, riding style, and a-arms for $300 shipped brand new. I even got to choose what color springs i wanted.  :nana:
