Rebuild BP51 or replace?

Thanks, yeah I’ve spoken to him. I’m hoping ARB will cover my single bad shock under warranty though they’ve yet to reply several days in and also don’t respond to FB messages so I suspect I’m SOL there. Definitely doesn’t make me want to continue using them.

The big hassle for me is weeks of downtime. If I could run mine until the fall I might be fine with it, but presently giving the truck up for 3 weeks to a shop to pull, remove the coils, ship out, wait for R&R, return ship, and reinstall is too much time

Yea I had that same issue, my vehicle was down a couple of weeks. Marc had my shocks shipped out in 2 days which was awesome. Wish I had a third vehicle for things like this.

So the good news is ARB just emailed me to say that because I’d bought through Slee they would ship me a new replacement and then I could send my old shock back once I swapped it. A slight nusiance to have to do the repair, but I appreciate them allowing cross-shipping. That will limit my downtime to an afternoon
