    Never sent that to me, sent that to Warren, and she was running a group buy 18% off for them, doubtful to a ton of profit margins. She's also putting ads on her truck. Not saying ads or you're an idiot. The differences are probably miniscule.

    Digressive shocks are better at harsh impacts and progressive are softer more comfortable shocks. Just putting it simply

    Minuscule or not, you'd be surprised the difference in efficiency and operational superiority that can be achieved by using copper vs buna-n sealing rings, for instance, or vice versa.

    The reason this is is because kings are on every off-road truck and buggy you see, along with fox shox.

    Never heard of icon, radflo, or ads till the tacoma..

    I'm under control, I'm undecided on shocks for later.

    Real question is why does no company use diamond like coating on their shafts.

    Longer seal life and less sticking, smoother and all.

    Then use real diamonds. Maybe the shiny things can have a real use

    Suspension and dampening is one of those wonderfully complex things. After watching "twist of the wrist 2" when they showed the suspension articulating on a motorcycle going around the track it was something else.

    I doubt she was pushing ads nor did I even remember the race thing that was on there. For the record she sent that to me after I was inquiring about the bilstein 61xx's and fox stage 2 setup. This was a couple of months before the ads group buy. She also contacted me as soon as she had the 3rd gen bilsteins in stock. So I doubt it is a profit thing

    Marie really doesn't seem like a profiteer. She never pushed me toward a more expensive set up when I first called in asking about ome. She even gave me 18% off my ads and the group buy was closed!! She didn't have to do that at all, and I didn't even know the group buy was going on, she offered that discount to me. I simply asked if there were any sales going on. She could've said, yeah they are 10% off now.

    Marie @HeadStrong Off-Road is the best.
