Is it worth it? Shock Therapy Suspension Tuning!

[@ftorvideo]

Wasn't happy with the first cut of this release... the GoPro doesn't do well filming things in distance. So - we sprung for a new cinema camera! Enjoy this suspension porn in full HD 120fps with 40x zoom! Going to have some fun with this camera...

I have a new 21 Smart shox car, at 712 miles with the Fox tune. my stock springs sagged 5 inches in the rear and 4 inches in the front. I've ordered the Shock Therapy springs to be able to properly tune my suspension. I have no doubt the springs will be one of the best investments I can make on this car. I do have a 2" .120 wall cage, spare rack and spare along with a tool kit and other acessories. Even more reason to make the switch.

I recently pick up a barely used 2013 RZR 900 xp 4 WE for exploring the desert and I was really surprised at how rough it rode in washboard and small chop. It was only slightly better at 40 mph than at 10 mph, but we could get through it a lot faster. Now I know this machine does not compare to the 1000's and X3s, but it really shouldn't be this bad. So after a ton of research, I found a number of excellent companies out there, but I ended up just yesterday ordering the Shock Therapy DRS spring set and RIS Shock system. Plus I live near Phoenix and even though I like to do things myself, I could not pass up the price they charge for install. Great value all the way around. Now your video just confirms that I made an excellent choice! Thanks for going to all the trouble in posting it.

[@ftorvideo]

It really is awesome! Thanks for the feedback and comment my friend!

[@sgd5k292]

Picked up my RZR from Shock Therapy Thursday and Saturday took it out to some of the rougher desert trails and it is incredible the ride difference the new ST suspension made at all speeds low to high. I could now easily keep up with my aggressive son driving his XP 1000 without the intense white knuckles of the stock suspension. And just as important, my wife loved the plush ride. I can't think of any upgrade that improved a product as much as this one has. Again, thanks for posting your videos!

[@Auztone]

Thanks Bro on the great review! But seriously Aaron, you JUST cost me some serious cash! Or at least in the off-season! I appreciate the the hard work on posting these comparisons with the shocks! Keep up the great work! If you ever get over the great PNW I owe you a drink or two of your choice!

[@ftorvideo]

Thank you for the support brother! If I'm ever out that way, surely will take you up on those beers!

[@bburg1776]

It looks like you need to tighten the high speed compression in the front a little. The tires look to be bouncing off the ground a little too much. My buddy has a shock therapy set up and his tires don't come off the ground. I only have the eibach spring kit but it helps 100% over stock. Great car great video 👍

[@NavigateOffroad]

I like the before and after you did. Good pre planning. Nice review.

[@ftorvideo]

Thanks my friend!

[@jspar1119]

Thanks for the details on shock therapy guys. I just ordered my springs yesterday

[@crashhypermonkey]

Thanks for the great review! Your editing skills are getting AWESOME! This will be my next mod thanks to you

[@ftorvideo]

Thank you for the comment and support my friend!! I'm learning a lot of new tricks when it comes to editing and really enjoying the process! Tell Shock Therapy I sent ya! They might hook you up lol

[@RickOrt78]

according to my buddy hell yeah it's worth it..night and day. my X3 is next

[@ftorvideo]

Yes sir! Be sure to come back and let us know how you like them once you get them worked on!

[@bradcimock2552]

Good move on the redo of the video,the slow motion of the suspension is fun to watch.looked like Keith had a helmet on,good move on his part,better safe than sorry.Keep up the good work

[@ftorvideo]

Yea buddy! I just wasn't happy with the GoPro footage at all. And after enough harrassment Keith did indeed get a helmet lol. You going to SilverLake Opening day?

[@bradcimock2552]

Full Throttle Off Road I wish we could,we are heading out on vacation next week.make sure you take a lot of good videos,opening day is alway a good day to see what people drag out of there garages to bring to silver.

[@zaneturner8423]

Good review, those ST guys know what they are doing.

[@ftorvideo]

Indeed my friend! Thank you for the comment!

[@Allinoffroad]

were you nervous about the body roll cause you already rolled over lol hahahah just kidding just kidding these videos are sooo damn good you did a great job on this !!!!!!!!!!!

[@ftorvideo]

Brother... Rolling changes your perspective on life! Hah! But a car with lots of body roll feels less dependable ya know? I was just worried that raising it up + the smoothness of them would equal body roll... Making it feel less confident in the corners. Thankfully not the case! And thank you for the support brother! Sincerely!

[@rogerwalsberg]

Just got shock therapy springs for my xx. Pretty excited to get them installed.

[@ftorvideo]

You'll love them!

[@UTVTOTAL]

great upgrade I need one

[@ftorvideo]

My wife supports this message. She wanted me to include a blurb about guys with significant others - ladies telling their guys to do this upgrade because it's more comfortable for them to ride along lol. I drive narly... This made it more enjoyable for even her lol

[@zombieqtr]

Awesome video!, is the dual rate spring kit softer than stock ?

[@ftorvideo]

The shock therapy kits make oem springs feel like riding on a train

[@zombieqtr]

@@ftorvideo wow its that significant. Need to get a set ASAP

[@jdmteggy31]

How does it work do you send them your stock suspension and they rebuild them ? And how much is it approximately and who do I contact?

[@MrMoronification]

So Aaron, the guy that adjusted mine, deleted my front sway bar. Said I would love it. Not to sure about it now.

[@ftorvideo]

Oh man, I'm not qualified to comment on that. I've not heard from a race ready company to remove sway bars. I know people do it for mudding and rock crawling, but I'm not sure about other applications

[@MrMoronification]

Full Throttle Off Road yeah, I'm not as confident with my ride as I was before.

[@canamx3americanflag788]

Only take off your sway bars for rock climbing. I even added the small Evan Walker shocks on my rear sway bar and it even takes out more of the chop feeling.

[@MrMoronification]

Can Am X3 American Flag thanks, I think I'll put them back on.

[@79stroker]

Good edit man! Looks like you are getting some tire shake, still have stock tierods and radius rods?

[@ftorvideo]

You're not the only one who noticed! I'm working on something :) And thank you my friend!

[@79stroker]

Full Throttle Off Road you are killing the vids. Keep it up. Looking forward to everything you do so I can not according. Honest reviews!!

[@max7143]

Yeah, it looked pretty excessive.

[@canamx3americanflag788]

Why wouldn't you run the comparison at 70 mph to keep the variables as equal as possible? Is 80 the new 70? haha I understand that 70 mph is pushing the stock suspension but a fair/accurate comparison would be at the same speed. You could also do the same test when the ground thaws as frozen ground is going to behave differently than unfrozen. I bet you will be even more pleased with the ST set-up.

[@ftorvideo]

To be honest, we weren't aiming for a speed. Just peddle down. I think the speed would come from the suspension making contact with the ground more efficiently, ya know what I mean? The stock suspension just kinda skipped over the top of the whoops. The valving I'm these is so much smoother, it put the wheel back down without making the car bouncy - allowing us to get a higher speed.

[@canamx3americanflag788]

I getcha! You need cruise control lol I search for the nastiest whoops to hit. I have a max so I am super smooth.

[@ftorvideo]

Keith after a few beers smooth?

[@BIGB-TOWN]

What did the total cost of the springs and all the re valving you did with Shock Therapy come out to? I'm thinking about doing the same to my X3. Great video!

[@BIGB-TOWN]

@UCHyFTvS1sMM2WJz1vsRPwUQ Oh Sweet!!! Thanks dude that's very helpful :)

[@ftorvideo]

[@ricardolopez2940]

is it a game changer or really helpful the bump steer delete tie rod kit(bsd)?

[@shawnmccutcheon6873]

grate can't wait to see that because suspension is all that is grate when right you rule all ask all who race spent millions when SXS first came out to get right never could

[@MrMoronification]

Looking Good! I might have to inquire about price!

[@ftorvideo]

Tellem I sent ya! ;)

[@shawnmccutcheon6873]

I thought that you had a nother shock company coming out to compare what happened to that or did they punk out

[@ftorvideo]

They'll be here on Wednesday!

[@alecsimmons1120]

Price point?

[@ftorvideo]

I linked in the description below to the products we went with. We got the full RIS with new springs, valving, and internal bypass tubes

[@sumoviking8671]

[@ftorvideo]

[@ftorvideo]
