Radflo offers shocks for the 80 series in both 2.0 and 2.5 versions.
Far and above the best customer service in the shock, or any, industry as far as I'm concerned.
Story, to validate the claim....
Four or five years ago, had few issues with a competing brand that required front coilovers return to CA to service (by fault of my own in another component product selection) but had nothing to run in the interim.
Posted up a request to buy or borrow specific coil overs for a month long period, Glenn messaging with an offer of a rebuilt pair for the duration of time the others were in CA at his competitor.
Ran 'em, bought 'em, and sold the others I had intended to have repaired.
When the time came to "upgrade" to a long travel front end, Glenn spent a lot of time discussing, built to specs I gave, attentive, but informative to what I "thought" I needed.
Well, I had an issue with coil rate, after installing on a Saturday, so emailed late in the evening, thinking it'd be Monday before I heard back.
Hour later, my phone rings and it's Glenn calling from SEMA to discuss and figure out the fix.
I was floored.
Just a dumbass redneck in BFE that DOESN'T have a $250k race truck, which seemed to be what it took to get decent response from the previous shock brand ran, and getting called on a Saturday from SEMA by the dood with his name on the shock.
Problem solved in short order, again, my doing, and due to those two instances, have outfitted three other Cruisers with Radflo's, have a set for the '76 Pig that UPS just dropped, and about to order a set for the most recent 80 acquisition.
(I swear, nothing funky on this one, Glenn. Easy 80 that'll pull off the shelf.)
The '76 Pig was 9-10 months of discussions (off and on) which received the same attention as a U4 build.....and for a series that may never generate another dollar of revenue.
My two cents.
Having ran personally ran Radflos, Kings, (and cheap chit, too) having installed SAWs and numerous Icon shocks and coil overs, there's attributes of all that set each apart from the others.
In my opinion, what sets Radflo apart is dedication to customer service and the pride inherent to every box that leaves with "Radflo" emblazoned upon.
Regardless if your on the starting line to the Baja, KOH, or stuck in traffic at the mall (be it a seventeen year old 80 or forty year old Pig, mind you) there seems to be no bounds for attentiveness and degree of customer service and satisfaction.
