Nice! What spring rates did you choose?
Any pics of the rears installed?

Rears are not on yet. Whatever they sent. I think 500/600. Rears fit fine. Seen at least 10 cars now with them no issues.

Just checked. Vi-king.com is working perfectly. You can view the website, call their contact phone # and ask them for the name of the nearest dealer to you.

I wouldn't call this 'perfectly', this is the products section.

Fair enough. However, it wasn't perfectly clear that you were wanting to look at the products. I though you were wanting info on where to buy and how much (info+pricing). Just trying to be helpful. If you call that same number on the main page of their website, you can ask about the problem with the products link as well as getting info on where to buy plus pricing. GL. They're really good shocks for the $$.

Yeah, at +/- $700, it seems like a good in between instead of going to coilovers. I'd be leaning more toward coilovers if I were road racing but for just a simple street/occasionally strip car these look like a solid addition.

I'll be selling my viking shocks as soon as they are off the car. Rears are already off.

$500. Low miles, near perfect shape. Probably be ready to go next weekend.

Old one fresh off car, and new one waiting to go on.

Zero fitment issues. Tons of clearance everywhere.

Quickjack 5000

Great for stuff like this, and doesn't take up the whole garage like my max jax, or require an hour of setup.

Those Viking coil overs really do look nice. When I run out of other **** to mess around with, I’m definitely going buy me a set of those.

Did you happen to get a weight difference between the coilover setup and the leaf/shock setup?

No but probably 4-5lbs heavier. The leafs are very light compared to steel coils.
