Default Differences in Viking double ADJ rear shock

Can someone explain *in simple terms*

The difference between the regular DA rear shock and the "drag" DA rear shock
The car is most definitely drag race oriented, full adjustable rear suspension, front coilover qa1s. I was originally going to opt for single rears but after reading and more reading it seems like doubles are the way to go for a serious "drag" car. But everyone else's double adjustable rears are $250 each (including Vikings drag rears) the regular double adjustable Vikings I seen for $170 ea

82-02 f body of course. thanks for any replies!

I didn't know there were two different ones. I know there is the Viking shock option (non-coilover) and then there is the coilover version. I have full Viking coilovers, front and rear. No complaints here.

Viking has a crusader line that is more geared towards drag racing.

The Warrior series shocks are geared more towards the street/strip cars.
The rebound tops out at around 400LB @ 10"/per sec.

Depending on your application you may need the Crusader series on the rear, they go to 4 digits which is about 3 X's the amount of rebound force.

For most applications crusaders work fine on the front.

If you need any info or pricing give me a call here at the shop.
