Well I hit a curb and bent my axel and my axel dmapner. I fixed the axel and stuff already but forgot to get a quad shock thing. Would it be ok to run without them for a few days or will drive horrible... Thanks!

Yeah I wouldn't be too concerned. Drove a couple days w/o mine after ripping the stockers off.

Yeah, the quads are not nesescary, most people remove them for weight or toput wider tires on. They do keep the wheel hop down when the wheels spin but if you get poly bushings in the lower arms it will be right back to (or better than) normal. They were one of the first things I took off when I got my steed.

I yanked mine off to run wider tires, not a problem.
