The Donahoe off the shelf C/O is race proven, enough said about that. Get the Donahoes, Total Chaos upper, and CST spindle with Deavers and a good shock out back and you'll be more than equipped to go out and have some fun in the dez and chase around Baja.

He ran DRs but I have never seen an off the shelf DR on his truck, last I looked the shocks had f150 ends on them and they dont mount in the stock locations. Longer bodies, different valving etc. Plus the custom bypasses you cant buy. Thats a whole lot different than an off the shelf titan C/O.
Besides last I heard he was taking the truck to king for new shocks.

Every SCORE race from the 2004 Baja 1000 (truck's first race) to the 2006 Laughlin Desert Challenge was run on off the shelf Donahoe C/O. Therefore, I would consider it race proven. Yes it had a triple bypass on the front end as well, but so does almost every other race truck.
After calling Sal and getting the OK we blew out the coil bucket and now we run Donahoe F-150 shocks with the same triple bypasses. Why? Another inch or two of wheel travel is huge in our class.
As for the King rumor, Im sure Bob will get a laugh out of that when I see him today.

Dude, they are not stock off the shelf titan shocks as you claimed, longer bodies, no internal limiter, different valving etc.
The product is good, let it speak for itself, there is no need to lie and try to bullshit people by saying you raced the same shock DR sells to the public.

The shock was designed for Bob, period. They admitted changing the shock out as of Laughlin 2006, to a DONAHOE F-150 shock because it is much longer., hence the longer shock body you see on the truck now.
Different valving? How can you tell?
I guess Donahoe's 7s wasn't running their shock they sell to the public either.

I have no comments on the 7 shock, never seen or owned them.
So the race car is gonna run the same valving with a bypass as a street truck? WAJ
The old shocks used longer bodies, I was not taling about the Ford shocks.
Heres a tip. Next time say the Stock titan c/o was based off the race shock, instead of trying to tell them its the same.

Youre right, the "street shock" is based off of the race shock because theyre the same thing. Ryan's example is another instance. Their Stock Mini (now a 7 truck) utilized the same Tacoma C/O they sell to the public. How about their Stock Full Superduty? Obviously not the same shock they sell to the public but its the exact same coil. As per valving, you never saw the shocks after the race so how can you attest to the effects of racing on "street" valving? I know what those shocks went through considering I ride in the race truck and I can tell you that they took a beating to say the least (obviously, its racing first and foremost) from first hand experience installing them before a race and taking them out after.
Then again what would I know, I just work on that truck 2 or 3 days a week and have done so for a long while.

Ok smart guy, then explain how you ran stock titan coilovers in 04 when they were not released until the end of 05.
I never questioned the shocks durability or ride, just your claim of running stock titan coilovers on the race truck.
Are you really niave enough to think you will run the same valving on a street shock by itself and a coilover combined with a bypass?
You may wrench on that truck but apparantly you never paid attn to the stock titan shocks to see the many differences.
So if they truly are the same how is it your race shock allows your arms to droop enough to where the coilbucket is cut for clearence when the stock titan shocks stop before contacting the bucket due to the internal limiters?
Just keep digging that hole Jr.

The DRE c/o's were built specificly for Bob and were thoroughly tested on his truck before releasing them to the public.

They ran the identical valving on the truck when it had a single shock on the truck; starting from Laughlin 04 up until they added a secondary shock.

They are allowed that much droop because right now the truck has 04+ F-150 DRE replacement shocks, that are much longer and allow a few extra inches of travel/droop. The coil bucket is also taken out to allow room for the extra length of the shock and the secondary bypass shock.

We Developed our Titain shock with Bob Grahams Racing program. We had never entended to make anything for the Titains untill Bob got his Nissan Deal. Bob and I go WAY back to the early 80's in Racing and I have Always helped him with his suspension. The EXACT Same Shock he finished 2nd in the 2004 Baja 1000 is the Shock we sell. THE EXACT SAME SHOCK!!!!!! But Bob being the hard core racer he is is always looking to gain better suspension so we have been tweeking the original shock to fit his modifications. But the above statment of "its the only Race proven off-the-shelf Titain shock on the market" is 100% true. We proved it in 04 and released it in 05. You are correct as well because as of now Bob does not run the Exact shock we sell. But it is built from all the parts we sell just not all the Titan parts. Does that make sence? hope I cleared this all up....P.S. If you want some kick ass Titan suspension why not go to the source. Bob Graham owns TItain Off-road.....He know more about Titains then anyone.

There glass works but I cut them, cause they come molded to fit the stock bumper. They fit good due to hours of fitting

wow no engine brace or shock brace, or am i just not seeing it because it looks like the coilover just goes right into the stock monting point. But also how much did you pay for that kit?
