I tried to get info on their other shocks and never heard back from them. Saw them at SEMA and they didn't have an answer about their other shocks. Wanted to be a guinea pig for them but....

I think they are made in Thailand.
 
There is a whole thread about them. Profender is also a part of that thread as well. I haven't heard if any one is running them yet.
 
I used to ask the guy questions about the shocks, I guess he was their rep. Never got really good answers. Decided that spending another $200 was worth it. I did find an article online where a guy compared them with a Fox shock and they looked pretty comparable, I still went another way though.
 
Someone (SDcruiser?) showed us how the front shocks are too long for stock a-arms and he eventually destroyed the upper balljoints. You'll have to verify fitment if using after market arms.
 
Been running them for 6 months. Lots of wheeling time. What kind of useful info are you looking for?
 
Put a full set in of the remote reservoir 2" lift shocks a month ago, straight out of the box, I'm happy with the ride and improved on road handling.

Do you like them?
What are you running on your truck? Springs? UCAs?
What have shocks have you used in the past? How do they compare?
Do they hold nitrogen well?
Do they leak oil?
How is the customer service?
What is the build quality like?
What type of bushing rubber is used?
What are the position diameters?
How long are the reservoir hoses?
What are the lengths of the rear and front shocks?
What is the shaft diameter?
How easy would they be to service?
Are spare parts available?
Do they have different tunes?

I would love to get a lot of this info from them but so far I have been unable to get a hold of the company.

Thanks in advance!
