RRC Twin shocks on the rear???? WHY

Just i quick question....

Why fit twin shocks to the rear of your classic, surely it would make sense to fit them to the front where the heavy engine is,

But dont see any front twin shock kit?????

Anyone know where i can get one???????

There are plenty. Try QT Services or Devon 4x4.

Twin shocks are usually fitted to cure shock fading due to high speed use over rough ground. I used to look after a comp safari racer that had twin shocks all round. (racer now sold by owner BTW)

To be honest in most normal off road applications you are better off looking at your spring poundage if you are experiencing shock fade.

The proper solution to shock fade in speed applications is to use a single tunable shock with a remote reservoir. The reservior increases the capacity of the shock absorber without hugely increasing the diameter of the shock body.

Thanks for the reply,

Tell you what it is, my classics still has its EAS fitted so was looking to take a bit of preassure/ abuse of the air springs while offroading.
