LAPD.

I just put on a set yesterday. Shocks dont support the car. Infact the car may ride a little higher at first until they break in.

I purchased mine from LAPD when they first came out last year and they are the real deal

CANT TELL DIFF IN RIDE HEIGHT. CAN TELL DIFF IN REBOUND ON THEM. AND AGAIN SHOCKS DONT SUPPORT THE RIDE HEIGHT.

I ordered mine yesterday from a vendor on Fl. before I found out about LAPD. I called them and told them about the price diff (about $22 shipped) they agreed to credit me $15.00 to help make up the diff.
LAPD is still the cheapest as far as I can see though!

Is that price per shock?

I understand that shocks dont support the car, but I could swear I saw posts where people said after installing the FSD's the car was lower by about a 1/4" or so. I was just wondering why a shock would have an effect on ride height. Ill do a search for some posts when I get home from work.

My car didn't lower any after installing the FSD's. Think about it though- unless the old shocks were "pushing up" the car, the only way the car is going to lower is if you mess with the height adjuster bolts or the springs.

Don't ask me why because I agree with everything above

FWIW, in the rest of the world shocks are called dampers. Their job is to dampen the energy created by the springs due to irregularities in the road and weight transfer.
The springs are what support most of your car's weight.
