who has the rubber boots on there shocks? what are the pros and cons to having them or not having them?
Doesn't mean anything, they will still retain dirt and water. The only time I would use boots would be if the shaft is on the bottom.jeeptorino68 said:the boots do have drain holes so they wont hold water
Vince said:Shocks are generally designed to operate in one mounting configuration. Traditional shocks mount with the canister on the axle, crossflow and remote reservoir shocks run with the canister mounted to the body.
