Viking’s B378AJ Crusader is tailored to big-tire Mustang drag cars making less than 600 horsepower. The “J” medium rebound curve supplies the control needed to manage rear movement without the excessive force intended for higher-power small-tire combinations.
This is a true competition shock with separate external compression and rebound adjustments. That range gives the tuner room to calm an aggressive hit, improve tire loading or tighten the chassis as track conditions change.

Installation note: Poly-bushed performance mounting can transmit more suspension noise than the factory rubber-bushed shock. Installed shocks are not returnable. Crusader shocks are intended for competition use and must be placed at Viking’s specified off-track settings when the car is not racing.
