    Sounds like Hawaii. Bought some hardware from McMasters for my spindle drop. $25 for shipping. Bought my rear sway bar from XII. Only $50 shipping. The sway bar box was measured in feet and tens of pounds. The bolts were maybe a couple pounds and 5"x5"x5". Lucky you live Hawaii.

    i asked them why they said its handling also, they gotta pay for materials and pay the guy to pack them. It was a used box from some kind console cover. 6.95 bastards!!! So i guess they dont pay for all that when they ship to the states huh. the price only changed when i selected hawaii. such a crock of bs. Toyotapartsoverstock.com gotta put them on blast for screwiong me! Thanks a lot adam!

    oh yah and as for xii they are honest and wont try to make money off you through shipping.

    Main reason why I DO NOT and WILL NOT buy from ChassisTech again is that I have been through the stories, as I am one of the MANY. It's well known in the airbag world that ChassisTech (also known as AIM Industries, Airbagit.com, Air Ride Pro (that got canned pretty fast) ... there's probably more but the products are the same) has POS quality products ... I take that back has EXTREMELY POS products. I'd rather have my stuff made from China.

    Some examples of them at their BEST ... SMH

    *Plug and play setups. simple easy, look straight forward? NO :mad: they INTENTIONALLY install the manifold valves in backwards! WTF is that about? Half the time the kit that is pictured/illustrated for install is NOT the same as the parts you were given.
    - Case in point, visit a site called S10 Forum. They will have some interesting stories and should have a FULL thread of a "plug and play" setup that was specifically for an S10 truck. Not sure if the owner was embarrassed after the realization of his fail but should be a thread on his install.

    *their imitation shock waves ... NOT what you think they are. seals will break/air leaks, you need replacement parts; TAKE FOREVER TO GET TO YOU, worse off you don't even get the right part and they charge you a restocking fee, STILL get the wrong part .. OMG it's helll!!!!!


    this one always gets me. these are YT videos describing why to buy their version of an air strut. The man in the video is the owner Joe Morrow. He's trying to clown on Air Lift and Universal Air, NOT a good idea especially when HIS product has MANY internal problems (as I mentioned; leaks, POOR quality, replacement parts are HELL to get from them, rebuild kits ... good F'n luck).

    to be honest, your better going off with either Air Lift or Universal Air if your on a budget. If you really want to get into it, Air Runner is one of the best out there as far as I know. There's another one, I forget the name though but a lot of importers/VIP style rides use them, but they are expensive.

    nah, that's made by Slam Specialties ... surprised they haven't come out with a strut bag set up yet :(

    The other one is K Sport. I know there's A LOT (do a search on Google for VIP air suspensions or similar, you will find more companies out there. Your mainly paying for the struts themselves really. The rest of the system is usually ViAir comps, Asco valves/manifold/accuAir/etc.).
