 DO YOU NEED ADJUSTABLE SHOCKS?

Everyone knows you need to hook up your horsepower to go fast. Since the shock absorber is really what controls how the suspension works, it plays a big role. Whether you’re running in a straight line or going around corners, it’s all about traction: traction going forward; traction going sideways. A drag-race car needs to come up softer and go down harder. A car that turns needs to minimize body roll. The requirements are different, but a shock that offers variable valving plus a wide range of travel can work effectively in both applications. A nonadjustable shock, out of the box, has the wrong damping for your car or truck, period. It’s like guessing a lottery number: There are too many variables, from horsepower to wheel and tire design to individual driving style. Because these options are infinite, your ability to guess correctly is nonexistent. So, why even try? Get an adjustable shock and tune it until it delivers the performance and/or ride quality that you want — then continue experimenting whenever track or road conditions change. If you want to take your street machine to the drag strip, you can make the front end fly up a little higher to transfer more weight and launch harder. If you want to autocross it, you can dial in the extra stiffness that makes it handle better. Dollar for dollar, I can’t think of anything that offers so much potential performance, or is so easy to install and adjust.

SINGLES OR DOUBLES?

Single-adjustable (“SA”) shocks control rebound (extension), primarily, while a double-adjustable(“DA”) shock sets both rebound and bump (compression), truly independently. DAs are always better, but you’ll pay from $125 to $150 more for the luxury of tuninghow firmly the shock both comes together and pulls apart. If money is a major concern and you’ve got a street car, single adjustable is far preferable to nonadjustable. DA is a no-brainer; it’s a phenomenal tuning aid for the price — especially considering what everything else on a race car costs! The only drawback is the work involved, but it pays off in performance. For the money invested, installing a DA front shock is one of the most-important things you can do to a drag-race car, because the frontsuspension has a tremendous effect on how the car hooks up. This is especially true in classes that limit tire size and/or rear-suspension modifications.
