When I was shock shopping, I vaguely remember Canadian Tire being able to special order them in.

...not sure on pricing though but it shouldn't be outrageous.

go to Best Buy Performance.
abbotsford-504-7053
surrey-594-6674
vancouver-430-0094

should be able to special order whatever you need. just figure out what you want ahead of time (length, valving, part #s etc) and save some hassles.
got me my sway-a-ways for a good price, tho it takes a while...

Can anyone tell me what exactly the valving numbers on Billisteins website mean? They seem to have two different valved version of each shock. There is no description what the numbers meaN though.

bigger number is heavier valving. for a toy with big tires I'd look in the 280+ range front and maybe 180?- for the rear.
go here raceshock (http://www.raceshock.com/) for deals and someone to tell you what you need, or call all-pro or someone who specializes in toys and billstiens.
