Default Shockwaves?

I picked up what I think are shockwaves, I see no part number or logo anywhere on them. Double convoluted bag, non-adjustable, aluminum shock, eye mount on either end. Who else makes this style set up? Maybe early AirRide?

Ridetech's web site says not to use this style on the rear and I can't use them on the front(camaro clip). I'd like to know what they are so when I sell them, I'm in the know.

If it does not say Air Ride Technologies, and ShockWave on it, it is not a ShockWave. The rubber will have the Firestone logo on it. Also, all ShockWaves up until 2011 were adjustable valving.
All others are fakes.

Thanks Bret, I went out and looked and saw nothing on the bags as well. Time to send them down the road.

Now to figure out which bags to use...

Buy back program??

Funny thing is I got a few hits from Craigslist until I went back and noted they weren't Shockwaves...good thing I didn't pay much for em.

Maybe I'll stick them on the boys go kart

I think we can get a deal done on the buy back....but at most its $100 for the pair, may be worth it to keep them and pickup a new set? Its up to you but Ridetechs shockwaves will impress!
