I do wish Viking had been a little more clear in the utility of the thrust bearings. I went ahead and ordered them because everything recommended I do so. And when you put it together it's the most obvious thing in the world.

Honestly, they really shouldn't sell the things without 'em. I wonder if they're just trying to beat a specific price point ("We sell our double adjustables for the price of QA1's singles!") and can do so by having you spend another $25 for the thrust bearings.

I mean don't get me wrong - still looks incredible. I just don't think that's a question that should even be asked. "Hey, do you want to put spring compressors on your shocks to make a 1/2 inch adjustment? Or drag your springs directly against the collar while you're doing it?"

I mean c'mon - the answer is obviously no and of course $25 isn't prohibitive when the kit itself cost about 25 times that.

Just don't give the customer the option. Sell 'em with the thrust bearing.
