Marlin Crawler's New Rock Crawling Long Travel IFS Suspension System (#RCLT)

That is frustrating. I ordered radflos and ORIs they came like clock work. I will say that Jensen Bros have been the best company I have ever ordered from. The amount of time they spent helping me with researching hydraulic line fittings to work in my setup was well above and beyond what I expected from anyone.

 

From what I hear, Marlin used to be that way too. I may be wrong, but that's what I've heard about WAY back in the day, it was like that.


But now... this is just my feeling... But I think, in the next 5 years, Marlin will either be under the Trail Gear umbrella or gone the way Pelfrybuilt went.

 

Seems like your local street drug dealer is more honest and has better business ethics than marlin crawler

 

Fox moved their manufacturing to GA? Or did I read that wrong?

 

Everything is in the process of Fox moving to Georgia. You read that correctly. I got that information directly from the Director of Sales for Fox Corporate.

 

sounds like you dealt with a shitty distributor...everyone i've talked to in the last year about shocks (both Fox and King) ie. Accutune, downsouth motorsports, Filthy motorsports. have all been very transparent and up front about what the wait times have been. and Accutune has been within days accurate for a few buddies i know who ordered thru them earlier last year.

 

Now that is hard to believe considering the pioneering cornerstone of all things shock absorbers is out west. I guess the trend is not just home owners any longer.

 

Well, with that logic nothing is a need, right?

 

Awesome

 

It makes perfect sense when you figure overhead in GA compared to CA

 

Yea I just talked to my buddy in CA, I guess a lot of Fox's sales are Mountain Bike and OEM related so it makes even more sense. They still have the offroad R&D facility in El Cajon.

 

They are also planning to delve more in to actual power sports. I don't know if that means getting in to producing ATV/UTV or just expanding further in to a partnership with CanAm or Polaris or someone. That may also play a role in the move.

 

All of the things. We stock long travel kits that are a fantastic option for those looking for the beef like the JD Fab kit, working with NWF to keep stocking quantities of crawl boxes for folks to order and have shipped within 3 business days. We order and deal with custom race shocks, bilstein , OME, Fox, King all of the major brands and have trained shock tuners trained by King on real coilovers in real conditions like KOH.

we have an OK website but are improving it daily and always trying to be better supportive to the Toyota community at YotaMafia.com

 

There's been a trend with in the last few years of Big Business leaving California because of high taxes, insane "green" environmental laws and regs, the list goes on etc etc etc.. MOst notable would be Tesla moving HQ. Even Toyota Corp. offices moved to Texas. Also there are more residents moving out of state than people who are moving to California. So bad that California lost a seat are two for representatives after the recent Census count which hasn't happened in the past

 

socialism and communism is bad for business.

 

I believe Nate said he got one of the first... did he say 2nd +3.5" kit. AFAIK these haven't been released at all. The normal kit we've all ordered is 2.75" so, I'm not taking this like he bumped the line and took one of our 2.75" kits. Just to play fair here

 

Yeah but those oh so hard to source uniballs and brake lines that are holding up everyone’s kits are also used on either kit.

 

Do you have more pics of your trimming?
Thx

 

Not to be negative but both kits are made of steel one just uses more than the other. That’s probably your pre-order money funding a 3.5” kit for an influencer.
