A Penske 8300 series shock is $830 each without springs. Worth every penny the first time you feel the valving and ride quality.
I distribute parts for manufacturers who have proven over and over that their products are of the highest quality. I also like to stick with people that make one thing very well- Like AP Brakes. They don't make wheels, springs, control arms etc. They make racing brakes, and they have been on every winning LeMans Corvette for over 10 years. Penske is the same way, as is Bilstein, Brembo, Ron Davis, etc. I won't use a shock manufacturer (like Afco) that makes radiators, ball joints etc. I want a shock manufacturer who only makes shocks, and does it right.
Think of it this way- Do you want your shocks built by a company that does a little bit of everything, or a company that does one thing exceptionally?
