I never thought I would say this before owning a T3, but I actually like the kit plastic shocks. They seem to last longer before requiring a rebuild than the aluminum shocks I've used in the past and the shafts don't get scratched up so easily.
I do quite like the plastic shocks but I'm currently in the process of converting mine over to alloy.
I found that once the plastic shock body's get some grit or muck in the threads on the shock body, the adjuster gets stuck easily and then the threads get ground down which just makes it all even worse. THe alloy shocks put up with muck a bit better.
