    FOA sells more shocks in a month that we do in a year in the US. We are a small company here in the US.

    Not yet. That is a pre-production unit. Still in the development stage.

    I am strongly considering the adjustable coilovers for my 07. Any idea how long the sale and the additional 20% off will be lasting for? How is the ride quality with them cranked up to the max of 2 inches? Do they come with the mounting hardware for the reservoir and are spanner wrenches included? Thanks

    The sale will be going on thru January, or until stock runs out.

    The ride quality is excellent, even when run high. These are valved for your truck, not a generic valving.

    They do come with mounting hardware for the res, no spanner wrench is included.

    Thanks for your interest.

    I followed the bro-coma build on pirate and am impressed as to the handling with your shocks. I will be contacting you shortly on here or pirate for some coilovers for my second gen (2005) SAS in progress now :D

    Not sure, 8" is not a big seller, I am going to get some on the next production run, so 6-8 weeks I would guess.
