    @Texoma , even though he's not in DFW. Very easy to work with.
    Tandem can "do" them, but they farm it out. The company they farm is out to is fine, I haven't heard any complaints.

    Fox 2.5 non res in the front, 2.0 res in the rear. Just has some marks on the tube, possible marks on the rod shaft. Considering going with a different spring rate so there's not so much preload

    Marks on the bodies aren't a big deal, but marks on the shaft can be. You got pics of the marks on the shaft?

    I will not send you pics of my shaft sir! Hahaha. I'm not worried about the tube so much, but the marks might be deep enough to leak oil. Don't have pics atm

    Any more than a very light scratch and they'll need to be replaced. Truthfully was really hoping for shaft pics, of the shocks.

    I just assumed an experienced person could polish the shaft.

    They could, but a deep enough scratch can't be repaired to mitigate seal leaks
