    Default Elka shock transfer question

    Just wonderiing if the Elka shocks on my 2013 RT will work on the 2014 RT? I think they are the same length but the spring rate might be different due to the heavier 3 cylinder engine. Any thoughts?

    Default As I see it..!!

    this would be a good question for elka. We have a sponsor on the home page that could shed some light on this. For what they cost it would be nice to take them with you...

    Yes, the 2013 do share the same lengtyh shock as the 2013, however a spring rate may be necessary due to the extra weight.

    Would I send them back to Elka or take them to Pit Bull ?

    Trooper, if it just requires a spring change that would be no problem. I could just order the correct springs and replace them myself.
