Hey Guys sorry for the Delay. Its been very busy for me at the office the last few weeks. I am still working with Down South MotorSports on the group buy..

Downsouth Will be able to do the 2.0 resis for us, as far as the steering damper I am working with FOX to see if we can get that from them. I gave FOX the part #'s for the steering damper Simon sent me. From what FOX said they do not make one for the LC's. The Part Number that I gave him was linked to a Jeep JK so the guy I have been talking to is looking into it. once he gets back to me Ill post his findings.

Both FOX and Downsouth are busy with the baja race right now, but the group buy is still in affect. I am still putting the list together. I only have it posted here as of right now for the SoCal guys, Ill post a Formal group buy for everyone else after I have all the socal guys taken care of.

Quick question, I know the holidays are coming and this time of year is expensive, So would you guys want to have this done before Christmas or After when people have a chance to recover from the holidays?

thanks for the understanding guys, I want to make sure i get this all Right the first time. That is why I am taking my time and asking allot of questions to FOX and Downsouth.

CruiserCouple.

P.S. Frank the dog is doing great she love's the SoCal lifestyle :)

Anytime is fine. I have my pennies saved for new shocks. I am running TJ's spare shocks. He will hunt me down if I don't return them soon.
 
I too have a budget for these so whenever works for everyone else.
 
I have a budget for them but if it takes more time to get everything organized properly then by all means take it.

Are we still looking at roughly 250 a corner?

Yes the rough estimate is $225 front each $190 rear each, but remember this is just the estimate. Down-South & I still have to go over somethings. Once I know the final price I will E-mail & post that price.
 
thanks. i might have missed it, but will this version need custom mounts or will they be ready to go?

edit: and are we doing a set valving for certain springs or is it going to be on a per application basis? (sounds like a lot of work)

Will be direct fit :) no monkey business for the mounts


It will be valved to your application, that is why i am asking people to e-mail me directly with as much info about there rigs as possible.

hendricksondataservices@gmail.com

I have created an XLS sheet with all the likely items that a persons rig has, also a field that shows cargo area weight and roof rack weight.
Like I said i want to be very detailed. the more detail I can give the better off we are in nailing the valving for each person. this is another reason it is taking time.

Sorry to make you repeat yourself! I'm all for taking as much time necessary to do it right the first time. In this case the second :). Thanks for going through the trouble for this!

x2. When this opens up to folks outside the club I have the money saved. If we can get the steering stabilizer too that would be super sweet. I'm looking forward to finishing the yellow to blue swap :D (email sent last week)

I sent one a few weeks back. I can send another one.
 
are these user revalvable like the bilstein 7100's? i ask this because my setup is most likely going to change after getting these shocks. (or should i just order them with future changes in mind)

They can be rebuilt and re-valved. I ordered mine for the set up I have now. Once i add a rear swing out and RTT I will have them re-valved.

My personal feeling is that you get them set up to your current specs. I am happy I did it makes the product that much more enjoyable in my opinion, our cruisers go thru many transformation and I like the fact that I can have the shock set up for any thing I might do to the cruiser.

thanks for the reply. i meant, is it possible to do the re-valving at home? or is it a send-in type deal

Haha wow I totally went the wrong way on that one didn't I. To answer your question correctly; it is a send in type deal, but I will double check to be 100% certain.

Cruisercouple - I'm in on the group buy. Sent you an email

S.Carolina, received your email and have you on the list.

The one thing I don't know about your cruiser is what tire package are you running? Please email that info when you have a chance.

Hope all is well for you & stay safe.
 
are you going to put this in 80-tech when its final? Just wondering so i know where to go and not miss out again.
