Default best shocks for a droop setup

Well i order shocks from junfac. and made a mistake and ordered the zero shocks. Which are not a droop shock.

So my question is right now i am running them with no springs but cant find an internal spring to work onthe inside of them.

I am running a tcs edge chassis. Which requires you to run a droop shock. I didnt have luck running sprung at all.

My stock factory shocks are beat so now i am in need of a better shock for the rig. Any suggestions would be great.

I'm sure they're not the best but I use 3 racing shocks with just the inner spring. I'm happy with them. I would recommend buying a couple rebuild kits with these though.

Go to your local harware store, Fleet Farm, Home depot, lowes etc.
They will have spings. I found a box of assorted compression & extension springs for like $5.

I will have to check that out tomrrow. And see what i can come up with. As the full droop with no springs it is sitting a little low.

Motorman, I bought some of those but could not get the inner springs to fit inside, It was a tight fit and had to screw the springs to get them in, but it was so tight that the shocks would not compress. did you have and problems?
