Afco Front shocks and springs? Can anyone tell me what the right part number to get for the Afco shocks and springs? On the shock's, I see part # 3870 listed when I do a search but I see there are several different 3870x part numbers at Afco and they look different.
Do the shocks and spring come with everything, or are there other parts needed? I see some have a bracket that mounts to the upper A-arm?
Thanks,
Dan

I have an Atech account though and I doubt many will match their price on Afco's, the reason I'm trying to gather all the right parts and numbers for the front

I'd still give him a call. He's not all about the $$$$. He's a racer himself and will respect the fact that you can save some cash. He has all the info you need in his head. He offers a lot more than just shocks and won't be bitter over missing this one sale. The $$$ you are saving may go to him for something else down the road. I would highly recommend a set of SYA bars.lol. Trust me on this one.

madman F T W. His advise and the travel lmiters got me back into the 1.3x 60 foot's last Friday and a new best, when I'm ready to upgrade from my r series and 12 way qa1 shocks to the afco's, I'm calling him. I don't care if I found them for 100 bucks cheaper elsewhere, the advise/knowledge that I can gain from him is by far worth more then anything I can save.
Someday, if I have $, or if I'm luckey enough that he's up in the new england area for a race, I can only hope to get him to give the car a once over

Couldn't agree move Steve. I try not to pester brian with too many questions... but I'll tell ya what, every time I ask something, and then go try his reccommendations, it always works as good or better then what I've been doing.
Give me a call when you're ready to order. We might be able to work out some kind of deal for you if you order all four shocks and springs at the same time. And as always, for anyone that orders shocks from us, we'll give you shock settings/suspension tune-up over the phone.
