    Oh yeah, how about SAW. I thought what the hell I'll rebuild both my shocks while I'm at it, pulled apart the 2nd one to find this

    That's one way to make a custom high flow rebound stack.

    Yup, and they are .008's. The compression side of the 1st shock also broke the first flutter shim. These were used on a race truck and I never pulled them apart (my fault). I doubt I broke them and doubt I drive my truck hard enough to ever break shims. I think I'll be adding some more shims to the rebound side

    Thats strange for compression to crack what was in there to flutter it? 0.15"? or bigger?

    Ok so what broke is compression shim on shock 1 and rebound shims on shock 2. Now I'm thinking I should at least replace the rebound shims that didn't break on shock 1 and the compression shim that didnt break on shock 2, along with all of the shims that did break. Make sense?

    he may like burnouts but he builds some good stuff...

    he built what i wanted and how i wanted it to look for reasonable price. hes not cheap but no where near the most expensive.

    i feel that i got what i paid for and a few freebies... like he boxed my bed mounts for free boxed and made me bolt on bumpstops for the price of just welding some one. and everything on my truck he made in the shop. ie. shackles, *hangers*, bump mounts, strike pad, spring perch, bedcage light mounts, even got some custom length brake lines because at full droop the ones i had were just a tad more tight than comfy for him

    some of it was overkill and unneeded to be made in shop but he takes pride in his work and and likes seeing stuff he made to be ran

    So as usual I'm way out of the loupe but what does kibbe charge for the bolt on bump stops? They look equal or possibly better than the tc or Icons and I'd rather support someone like him if possible.
