    Good morning,

    I just got off the phone with RCD and I figured I would let everyone know the latest ETA per RCD and Bilstein.

    The 5100 Series Shocks are not done at Bilstein...Bummer...
    They are supposed to be shipped sometime in March...
    Yes I said March....So the we will all be in for a little bit of a wait..
    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news and do not shoot the messenger..
    But better to know then not to know...
    Bilstein running out of an "A" mover shock,they are probably still upset about me selling them to all of the forum members to cheap..HA,HA,HA...
    Anyway by the grace of god and all that is holy we should have them
    by the end of MARCH and hopefully sooner...We will keep you posted with any new updates..


    As always "Thank you" to everyone out there for your business and patience...

    Sonny

They're available up on our site for you. Discount code is the same as before, and you will need to register first, then plug in the code at check out.

    Promo Code: TACO9604F

    Thank you and have a great weekend....

    Hi Everyone,

    1st Gen 5100s are currently out of stock.

    Per RCD, we likely will not see anymore shocks until sometime in JUNE!!

    This is completely out of our control, and not what we wanted either. We apologize for the bad news. If anything changes, and they "find" any shocks for us, you all will be the first to know...

    Thank you,
    -Marco @ DSM
