how about some video of what it can do. Whats the price? do you have the stock shocks dialed in? do you supply new valve stacks and spring suggestions?

We will put some video footage together for you. the kit retails for$3800.00
there's a really nice dual rate kit that works great for the weekend worrier type , but if you are racing i would get with your local shock tuning specialist because not every car weight the same and everyone driving set ups are different , from the guy that has his foot plated to the floor through the big holes and to the guy that lets off for the big holes . So to answer you question no there's no valving kit that we sale with it .

The arms look pretty sanitary. I like the way you slanted the lower leading edge of the front arms to help them deflect possible impacts. Nice touch! The stock rear upper shock mounts on the Mavericks are poorly placed. The lateral loads on the shock shafts are excessive with the forward angle the shocks mount at. Your kit would benefit greatly if you moved the bottom shock mount on the rear arm closer to the front of the arm, and farther outwards towards the tire. You would then need to make an adapter to that attaches to the top shock mount and "twists" the shock eye so it is more squarely mounted relative to the a arm pivot axis., as not to bind the shock.

At the Parker race this season, the Murray's broke both rear shock shafts at the same time while taking a hard impact to the rear of the car. They too, ran the stock mounting angle of the rear shocks, and were running 5/8" shafts. They beefed up the shafts to 7/8" of an inch, and have had no further issues to my knowledge. Because the shock does not pivot perpindicular to the a arm pivot axis, there is a side load being introduced into the shock shaft as it compresses. This is just one of many problems that arise when designing a consumer friendly bolt on kit for the general public, but it doesn't have to exist. These fundamental flaws can be addressed, and alleviated through creative minds like ours.

Good luck with your kits, and remember, there is always room for improvement, even if you design F-1 cars! Great job !
