I was installing new tires and found a broken shock on one side rear and the axle seal leaking on the other I need to find shocks quick as we plan to leave on the 10th of July I bought the tires through FMCA saved at least 40% off of all other quotes

Unless you are going to do the fronts too, I'd probably go with the Koni's Adjustable, the SP3 generation. I'd suggest doing them in 'axle pairs'.
If you are doing them all, on and budget will allow, I'm a big fan of Road Kings. We have 6 all around. If budget is below Road Kings, then 6 (assume Tag) Koni's SP3's.
Another option, as many feel the front IFS really benefit the most out of the Road Kings, is to: Drive Axle and Tag Axle = Koni Adjsutable SP3's (I'd recommend number 3 setting) Front Axle = Road Kings

I'd get the leak looked into too, before heading out.

Opinions will vary on the shocks:)!

Best of luck,

I just got my Koni SP3's last week and was about to have them installed this Friday. However, when I adjusted the shocks (I am going with the 4th setting), one of the shocks is so weak that it can be cycled easily and makes a lot of noise when doing so. Called Koni and they are replacing it.
