Default My intuition was right...

I have a blown shock. My front right shakes like crazy under acceleration. I haven't gotten a chance to take a look at the susp. since it's nasty weather here in NOVA. I have tokico blues. Any signs that I should look for as I inspect the shock?

Also, I would like to change my whole susp. set-up altogether since my current set-up sucks. I won't have the $$ to do that for a couple months, could I drive with one blown shock for that long without any serious side effects to my susp.?

P.S. Is there such a thing is "short-bodied" koni yellows? I've decided on the GC/KY combo but I was told that KY's have a version with a shorter shock body specifically designed for low vehicles.

the koni/neuspeed yellows are 20 mm shorter and have five perch settings, as opposed to three. they don't raise or lower the ride more, just give you more granularity in adjustments...

There are several groupbuys going on for those koni/neuspeed shocks. Thanks for clarifying that up isotopesope. I thought there was only one version of koni yellows. I'm definitely going to buy those.

Now, if I were to drive for another 2 months with my blown shock, how bad of a moron would I be?
