Anyone tried these shocks on our HD? I have them on my L and they are much firmer than the old stock Bilsteins. My L handles much better with the Doetsch Tech Nitro slammers and was wondering if it would do the same with my new 2003 HD. These shocks are pretty cheap at only $39.95 each at Sport Truck Direct.
Here's a pic of what they look like:
2003 Harley Davidson F150 #8432
2001 SVT Lightning #435
2001 VW Jetta
2001 Ducati 748 Fila Rep.
2001 Aprilia RS50/70
If they are better than bell Tech Nitro Drop shocks I would buy them
Aloha and be safe

i'm most probably making an order on some doestch tech's today. probably froms sporttruckdirect.com
Keith I see you are from Kona. I'm from Oahu originally but now I live in Vegas. Only thing that sucks is that there are no waves here, I have to drive 5 to 6 hours to surf in San Diego. My uncle and aunt live in Honaunau (I think thats how you spell it-can't remember its been a very long time).
Anyone know if they make a surf rack for our HD trucks?
I was thinking of ordering a set of these, since the Bilsteins are so damn expensive from Ford.
doestch has always been a very nice lowering shock.... if you are lowering more than 2" then the doetsch can be a good replacement.....

ordered mine today from sporttruckdirect with 6 degree shims, paid just over 200 bucks including shipping
I have them on my 4/6 drop and they work great! Haven't had any problems yet!
good to hear, will be putting the kit on begginning of next week.
JT2002HD- What kind of drop do you have? Let us know how the install goes. I want to see how the shocks are on a stock HD with just the rear 2" drop.
right now I have a 2/4" drop (cut coil in front - hangers/shackles in rear) but im going with the 4/6 drop, already have the kit, putting 2" lower arms up front and flip kit with c-notch in the rear. will probably have to take the drop shackles off so it sits level with the front. already have all the parts in, will do the install this coming week.
