    It has come to our attention, that there may be some confusion as to what we do here at #downsouthmotorsport. #wedoshocks we service everything 100% in house! Fox, King, ADS, Icon, Bilstein. Every shock we touch is cleaned, inspected, disassembled, parts replaced, shafts polished, reassembled, charged with nitrogen and then inspected again. All our service work is backed with a 1 year warranty on our work. #downsouthmotorsports #wedoshocks #offroadshockservice #offroadshockprep #shocks #shockparts #wedoitall #bzsx #doingshocksismorethanturningtubes #100percentinhouse #shocksonshocksonshocks #itswhatwedo #SHOCK #SERVICE

    Sorry for the HASH TAGS, I copied it directly from Instagram.

    But I want it to be clear, we service everything 100% in house.

    But do you do shocks? :)

    I went to a local place and they didnt know the first thing about fitting a tacoma, they quoted me 4 weeks to build the shock and over a grand. I just called Micah and got the exact shock I needed within 5 min for a much better price IN STOCK!!, he knew the setup I had and what would work best. Can't beat that!

    How long should one go before thinking about getting shocks serviced?

    parts headed your way today!

    That's a loaded question and there are many variables.. If they are leaking, if you have lost nitrogen, even if they don't leak but you have a lot of miles on them, its a good idea to open them up and go through everything and freshen them up.
    I recommend that you regularly check your nitrogen psi, clean the shocks and inspect them. You will be able to tell when they need to be serviced simply by doing the above.

    The 5100 is a non serviceable shock.

    Remember the big "Leeper" coilover controversy:eek:? Well you guys rebuilt my leepers and they came back top notch. I got 35,000 on them now and still feel new. Big Plus with their service and getting them back to me in Hawaii under a weeK.

    Can you guys add the Icon CDC valve to the leepers?

    My front fox 2.5 reservoir shocks are leaking, took them out and replaced them with the stock ones I had as spares. What should I do?
