Scca B-street legal monotubes

Do those companies make just dampers/shocks though? I thought Fortune and AST only makes coils... although I'm sure they'd make up something custom for the right price.

I have a set of street class legal single adjust AST's sitting in my garage right now. Bought them used and had them on my car until I upgraded beginning of last season.

The AST dampers seemed to offer more damping than the factory dampers. Additionally, each click on the adjuster creates a clear and noticeable difference which you may not get from some of the cheaper options out there.

The other plus of getting a set of the AST dampers is that you should get a shock dyno chart for your dampers showing how they left the factory.

Quotes from stance and ast are similar to a bit more than ots.
