Default New big bore shock upgrade for Volcano's and Tsunami's

Here are some pics of a big bore shock upgrade that all of you can do to your Volcano's and Tsunami's. They fit perfectly no mods needed. Just need to move the shock mounts to the inside of the shock tower. They are a little bit longer than the stock shocks so when mounted they offer a little preload which is good. You only need to run 4 shocks instead of 8 since they are bigger and better shocks.

These are the shocks that you need to order qty 2 pair

You could on the old volcano stx or the tsunami but the shocks are too big to fit threw the front upper arm of the sv and s30. IF you were to put 8 shocks on it would be way to stiff and the truck would bounce around when driving it.

I just picked these up from nick and the are sick, so so so much better than stock. I would definitely recommend to everyone, it would be one of my first upgrades after a pipe and filter if it was new haha.
