i want to start upgrading one of the blasters suspensions to a little smoother ride what is the best BANG for my buck?
I saw PEP ZPL PB-1 for the front and an ELKA dual rate stage 3 shock for the rear. you will love the ride.
i know all too well about the elka's you pay more for the name than the performance and have had BAD luck with progressive shocks blowing out all on my banshee, but the blaster for the kids i am understanding that the z400 and dvx400 rear shocks are a descent fit.? i havent really gotten into any modifications to the frame and dont really want to start cutting a bunch, a little is ok but i just dont like cutting and welding on the frames that much, especialy when it comes to my kids safty.
what are you smoking?
you dont pay for the name, you pay for a race engineered shock that is a billion times more reliable and a billion times better then any stock shock out there
im sorry, but the only way to get a decent ride is through multi-rate shocks... theres a reason why they build them, as the shock goes through its compression stages, it needs different rates for different terrain.. plain and simple
ive had 2 vehicles with progressive springs, my truck with 10 inch dual rate fox COs for my rear 3 link and on my blaster with elka triple rates... NEVER ever had a problem, just because there progessive rate doesnt mean they blow out, sounds like something wrong on your end

i think peps are better than elkas
