Install will come soon. I just got this 5th shock a few mins ago and it’s dark outside and I have to help my kids with their homework.

Right now I have oem shocks installed so I’ll give a review on this with oem suspension and then something with 3.0’s and bypasses…
Then eventually some links with uniball etc ends

So here is the box that came. Two dogue de Bordeaux’s for size reference

Packing quality, thick cardboard, traditional paper packing, then the shock was wrapped in foam sheet and in a clear bag.
Really nicely protected.

In the rectangle bag are warranty info, the QC check list, two carbon stickers and two pieces of candy

Inspector dogs for size reference

Stainless 2.5” body
IFP, protected fill port for needle valve
7/8” shaft

Com10 bearing on one end, busing on other (knowing carbon, the bushing side is already machined if you want to risk the shock twisting and install a com10 bearing there as well)

Definitely not a steering stabilizer!

300 lbs of love unless you mess with their picked child. Then all bets are off!

I was messing with my daughter. His picked child. He did not like that and was warning me even when I had my phone camera out lol
 
$399 retail

Doing a quick comparison vs the competition:

Other brand:
2.0 body
Regular body
Modification needed on mounts
Performance series parts
I get zero kick back


Carbon
2.5 body
Stainless steel
Tuned for the truck
No modifications needed. Meaning the body and cap are made for the trx and not off the shelf generic parts
Tunable if needed
Race quality shaft
I get zero kick back
