    I've seen fox shocks brake like that before at desert races. Can't say I have ever seen a king shaft snap like that. I'm not sayin, I'm just sayin...;)

    Is that right? Hmm...yeah King is unbeatable and the only other way I would go to be honest. Figured Fox was a dead second. Luckily, they're warrantying it and I'm getting a new one shipped tomorrow.

    Did they send you out a new one or did you bite the bullet and buy a new one?

    I have a set of the stock off-road wheels. Plasti-dipped black. No tires though. Nevermind. Just saw that you're looking for aftermarket

    Hey Everyone. A few of us are going out to Burro Wash just South of Boulder City for a trail run Sunday morning. Should be a lot of fun. If anyone here is interested, just let me know :D
