Default NEED HELP?? threaded shocks for kanai 2

hello. need some help here.... or advise....or whatever you'd like to call it.
i'm think of buying some threaded shocks for my kanai 2....i was looking at the INTEGY brand..
don't know much about them, or haven't heard much about them.
i don't know if i should just keep the stock shocks that came w/the kanai 2, or if i should go w/the integy ones.....(they sure look nice though..) any advise would help thanks!!

the kanai shocks are as good as they come. the only shocks i would advise are kyosho and mugen.
stick with the kanai shocks threaded is over rated anyway just something else to fail.

why would you even want threaded shocks off road?
the threads just get all clogged with dirt making them harder to adjust[:'(]
what can be simpler or quicker than just slipping a spacer in or out? no messing around turning the threaded collar a little at a time making sure both sides are the same- just whack in a spacer that you know is the same both sides & away you go!
plus the Kyosho or Mugen shocks are probably the best you can get
(not tried my XRAY shocks yet but they built up & feel very nice)!

Ditto Kyosho shocks are very nice, Adamshowtime is right, the thread is always gonna get dirt into it, spacers are great , simple quick.. You could spend your money better on that site, like aluminium suspension holders front and rear etc..
