CF Trunk Shocks?

Hello All,

I have a CF trunk and I put it on last night. What I have found is the stock shocks seem very rigid for the weight of the new trunk. I know an option is to run without them although I would prefer to keep it functional.

What have others done? Is there a shock that is lighter pressure? Only use one and be careful? Input and suggestions appreciated, thanks!!

Sam
