OWM Shocks

[diggindirt]

Anyone know if aluminum, late model style, shocks are allowed in OWM?

Saw a few bolted up this weekend. I thought they had to be steel.

steel the shocks in question on the cars are steel with coil over kits which are legal some mods run coil over elamators others run coil over kits

shocks in question.... you must already know who had them... ive not see any STEEL shocks with threaded bodies...new one on me. also OWM have to use 5" springs, not the 2.5" as the LM's... we will find out for sure this weekend.

I thought that's what had to be run. I'll need to take a closer look next time, but what I saw looked like a threaded shock, but I'm getting old too. Eyes aren't what they used to be.

I was more curious on what was allowed.

Thanks for your feedback!

That's probably what I saw.

After I looked the kit up, I figured that was probably it.
