Default WTB> Best vendor to buy Viking Shocks from??

I am looking to buy Viking Double adjustable shocks. Any vendors who have better pricing than the Viking factory at $754?

PST sells them for $719...so not much cheaper. But that's the extent of my knowledge on pricing.

Some other thoughts...Jegs & Summit sells Viking, so maybe see if they have better pricing if they can get the right model numbers.

I recall seeing a vendor named UMI Performance as selling quite a bit of the Viking product line for GM vehicles, but didn't list anything Vette specific on their website. I'm sure they can get hem...but price, I don't know. Certainly worth an email inquiry.

Viking is big in the mustang crowd...maybe hit up a Mustang vendor that has good pricing, and see if they can order yours.

Lastly, hit up forum member Unreal...he runs them, and usually knows where the good buys are for most bolt-ons.

Thanks for the feedback, I get Summit Pro Shop Pricing so going to check them out. I checked UMI as well seems like don't carry much for vettes.

I am still on the fence about the DA shocks from Viking, Looking at Ride Tech as well. What is your reason for possibly wanting to sell them off?

Not selling them.

If I was selling them, I would want $600 but I'm not, so who cares.
