    Damn. Wish I had the 400 bucks lying around.

    Even though I think I do hydros rather then air. Good deal though.

    These are 4" stroke or 4" diameter body?
    I can't see why someone would need a 4" diameter bump but the way shocks are going I could see it being done just to do it.

    4" stroke
    That's my plan if no one wants them. I figure you can make a 4" to 2" but if someone has a 2" and they need 4" it would be easier to trade.

    Wouldn't touch those things. Shafts are fucked for sure. You'd need new shafts and a rebuild a minimum.

    How much do shafts run? I thought a rebuild would run less than $100 but if they are as fucked as you say then I won't lol

    A rebuild with new shafts for my 2.5 piggyback shocks was quoted at $400 from Icon for both.

    I thought air bumps and hydros where different though? Same concept but aren't their advantages to one over the other??

    You may be thinking like an emulsion shock vs a nitrogen shock

    So assuming both coil overs need new shafts at $40 a piece, DSM charges roughly $300? to rebuild them. I get the coil overs for $250 then Im into ext. coil overs just above $600?

    Let me know if my figuring is wrong but thats still about half the price of new ones and imo would be worth it

    itll be cheaper to buy those and rebuild them completely (or have a shop do it) than to buy new ones, icon has pricing on their website think its $125 to rebuild (per coilover) plus cost of shafts, or if i remember right $600 (for both) to rebuild and add remote reservoirs
