Whats the difference between these and the cheaper cost Warriors?

warriors are for <600 hp typically

crusaders are meant for over 600 hp

I have had my crusader shocks on my car since mid January bought from Terry at beef cake racing. I have not heard any noises from them after installing them. I also made sure when I secured the lower mount that has slots in the cross bar to center it in the lower opening.

I am still trying to find a balance for daily driving/cruising and WOT fun. I love the way the shocks control the rear suspension at WOT!

Glad you don't have a rattle problem but many here do have the problem ... Yes I agree they do work well but they should not rattle ..

I sent mine back for the updated to rid the rattle problem , the replacements rattle just like the old ones , Now I have the Vender telling me I'm bashing Viking and they don't like that.. Many here have posted about the rattle so I guess all of them are bashing Viking .. Pointing out a problem is not bashing, asking if others have the same problem is not bashing .. If you want to see bashing I can do that but would rather not ..

what is it in this day and age, if you have a problem with something, simply picking up the phone and making a call to the manufacturer.

manufacturer asked for a call to discuss the issue with the shocks.

the response is "i sent them an email"

The owner of the company wanted to talk to you about the product and discuss a resolution. How is that not trying to do something........

personally Ive gotten mine back & have been on for a while now. is there noise, well yes. is it road noise, well it could be. I guess what im saying is they are much better noise wise & the ride didnt change. Im liking mine so far so good

I'm honestly tempted to buy another set of Vikings. I sold mine over a month ago because I didn't plan on switching back and forth with my FRP ones. However, I miss them for some reason lol.

Well if you want them back let me know. The person you sold them to, sold them to me. Maybe because he couldn't handle the raddling noise.

I never even installed them, not for one second. I do miss my original set of warriors but I sure as hell don't wanna live with rattling. I sold the crusaders without ever putting them on.

I bought my Viking "Warriors" from someone on this forum. I was wondering if Viking would still be willing to take them back and make whatever adjustments need to be made to eliminate this rattle!

they can't adjust the rattles out otherwise that's what we all would have already done.

some of us, including me, HAVE called them and we might as well have not even bothered.

That sucks , there's no warranty either Viking honors ?

they say, " oh yeah you need to talk to so and so, he handles all the noise issues."

then they say, "oh we haven't heard of ANY issues with noise."

or they say, "it's normal."

which really means, "we don't know what's causing it and we don't know how to fix it so don't plan on it."

or, "we have a disclaimer that says they might make some noise." (which they didn't at the time many of us bought them and now they do, imagine that).

I really want to get these, just nervous about all the noise complaints especially on a daily driver.

don't do it. your daily isn't pulling 1.20 60 fts. You can do 1.50-1.60 on stock shocks.
