TCS renamed themselves race tech about a half dozen years ago.  If the shocks are that old and rusted then they probably need to be rebuilt by a shock shop as well as rechromed.  You can buy a new rear shock from race-tech or have them rebuild your stock rear shock.

race tech = tcs. TCS always made good stuff imo.

I think it boils down to what your price range is.

I always liked the 660 rear shock... never had troubles

I think, price wise, your best bet is to have it rebuilt.  :thumbs:

Well when I sit on my raptor the rear shock might as well be bottomed out I weigh about 300 so I just figured finding a used tcs shock would be good enough to have rebuilt and revavlved for my weight I seen a tcs rear shock that came with the linkage on eBay a couple of weeks ago I think it went for around 300 but Unfortunatly I made the mistake of not plugging my computer in before the bidding frenzy lol and I can't seem to find any others
