anyone know where i can get replacement shock shafts for the hot bodie shocks....my shop can't seem to get em?? Internet or some where in So.Cal
 
If you still have the stock shock shafts use those instead. I have read where the stockers are stronger than the HB's. I looked around for the HB's, but couldnt find anything. Hope this helps ya.
 
I hate to tell ya this, but go back to the stock shocks. I bash, and wasted $100 on the weak HB shocks. After only 2 bashes, I had totally trashed 3, and another was well on it's way. You can beat the snot out of the stockers and not have 1/10th the problems that the HBs develope. It's in the design of the shock body that sux, no lateral support for the shaft. That's why they bend easily. There was an old thread on here, if ya want, I can try to dig it up for ya.
 
You could have asked me, and had my set for the asking.

Those are the threaded ones, just like the ones I trashed. I wonder why they are on sale? Hmmm.

You got the racing kind EP. Those are designed differently and look almost exactly like the stock ones, which are much stronger and better designed than the HB threaded ones.
