Pretty sure those are the ones I've seen on Ebay all the time. Supposedly fully adjustable length and universal (eye to eye or eye to clevis)? I'd be really leery of them because the bottom mount threads into the shock body and seems like a likely failure point. I know the price is right (dirt cheap), but remember if something seems too good to be true it probably is.

yes that is one weak link.the problem is that those shocks are short,the only way to make them close to as long as stock shocks is to extend the bottom mount the specified maximum,which is ten mm, and add the extender that comes with it.sorry having a hard time resizing pics

another try

had to add washers to the bottom where it bolts in

it has much less travel so i can forsee some bottoming out

my suggestion would be to stay away, for what you are going to pay for those and a little more you can get a nice pair of progessive shocks.these would probably be great for a bobber project
