High Dollar Adjustable shocks, those look amazing

Wish they made AGX adjustable shocks for our cars, while not the quality of those beauties you posted, they've got the job done on my project turbo van just fine.

Looks real good Bunkie. Love the stance.
I saw the parts over at Bunkie's, the day before he installed the Pedders.
All the parts are top notch quality, and hard to imagine anything better.
That puppy, ought to handle now, for sure.
Good job Bunkieman. "Moon"

Here's pictures of the spring retainer and the shock adjustment point.I wish the adjustment knob could have been on the bottom but, Pedders says NO.

Yeah! the hose clamp is pretty Mickey Mouse but,it works. Actually I'm machining a pair of split collars to replace them but, doubt if they work any better. It's been raining like hell out here so I've yet to do any serious testing or further fine tuning. I'm still in the process of getting the half shafts at a reasonable angle. Having the nose in the weeds looks pretty cool for pictures but, don't know how you could drive it very long that way.
