any shock of that same length and diameter will work.

this may work, low cost with coil over shock with different spring rates and color match shock bushing if needed.

I'm getting my cr-01 today not sure if it fits for a low cost upgrade

Hi Guys,

Along with other CR01 option parts we are working on, We are also working on a threaded shock body and lower shock retainer combo that will allow you to use the stock spring and other shock components so you can have a more conventional coil-over shock setup.
