Question Anyone else running viking shocks?

So I just got my Viking shocks in. They look awesome but getting to the adjustment setting is a pain when they are in the car.

I’ve had my Viking Crusaders in my car for over a year now. Just sent them back in to Viking to have them stiffen to their new design. They work great!

I have the strange in the rear. I'm considering the front setup from Viking. Do you have those also? If so, are you able to access the adjusters easily?

Are those the stock springs?

No they are BMR springs.

I have seen guys relocate the shock bolt hole on the lca to raise the mounting point up a bit and that allows for more access to the knobs.

why did not you buy a complete kit? the Viking springs and brackets seem to be good. recently I ordered complete coilover warrior kit, I hope to connect the tires on the street with them

Didn't see the need. Just wanted a little adjustment in the rear. Already had the springs.

the LCAs for 15" conversion and coiler conversion both move the mounting point and give a lot more access to the valving adjustments. Your current setup looks like a huge pain to get at.
