You could try Strut Masters, and another place called Arnott Industries. I think some other club members have used their products and generally been pleased with them. http://www.arnottindustries.com/promotion/...-suspension.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not absolutely sure about this one, but I believe the mounting points, etc. for the air and non-air shocks are the same. There should be several folks on this board who have done the air-to-non-air conversion...I'd keep bumping this until one of them chimes in. Keep us posted on your progress--it's useful knowledge to share, for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
