    Does anyone know what type of shock this is? I am restoring some auto resetting steel targets and the shocks are blown. It’s about 18” in length

    That’s a actuating cylinder not a shock can probably take it apart and measure the seals and rebuild it.

    What was it hooked up to before a hyd pump or air lines? From the pic it looks like it had sinflex air lines to it.

    It wasn’t hooked up to anything, how it is pictured is how it came off the target

    Ive been trying to reserve one for an hour and the site keeps timing out or crashing. Tried nearly every zipcode in AZ and they kept telling me "no loner accepting reservations for this dealer" and other misc. error codes. Oh well

    Yeah but it looks like a plumped up jeep renegade.

    Im not really worried about that. Plus the reality of waiting a year for me to buy anything is nearly 0%. The reality of selling the reservation in 6-12 months to someone that wants in sooner because they slacked on a reservation is nearly 100%. Look at what happened with GFC camper reservations. People were paying thousands just to jump ahead in line.

    Reading over the specs for the Bronco Sport and I'm honestly pretty impressed with that thing, too. 46mm monotube shocks all around from the base model and up, and the Badlands version has a pretty awesome sounding Torque Vectoring AWD system.

    For most people who city commute, but want a capable "off-highway/tarmac" SUV, it's gonna make the Subaru's and uni-Jeep's sweat.

    At the very least, every Bronco Sport has two tow hooks front and rear (something most unibody Jeeps don't include) so it can get recovered easier if the owner ends up outside of the vehicles capabilities.
