Profender anyone running them

I will look and see what I can find.

 

8s are a pretty big seller.... it takes an 8 inch shock for most long travel kits unless people cut their coil buckets and go with a shock hoop.

 

I will give you that in the Toyota world an 8" is a good choice, be in all our sales an 8" shock is about 5% with a 14" shocks being about 47% and a 16" at about 42%. So that is what I meant by "not a big seller" in overall sales. Sorry for the confusion.

We lost our Facebook friend page, it was coverted to a fan page and all the pics were lost. There were some of a customer Toyota that i can not find. I will keep searching....

 

so i went on the site and shock parts is empty so if you need to rebuild them what componets can u use? i know with foa u can use king stuff, so as far as revalve and rebuild where can you get shims and kits/

 

We have everything, its just not listed yet. Sorry.

 

Interesting.

Ryan(Profender),

Good job on answering questions. Will keep you guys on my list when I re-do my rear suspension.

 

but can other shock parts be ran in a profender?

and i see what your saying on overall sales now!

 

Being that we sell parts to make money and help our customers, I cant really give a list of other parts to buy. Some things from others may or may not fit, it would be up to the tuner or re-builder to figure that out if they did not want to buy from us. Hope you understand.

 

Thats reasonable, it reminds me of things I have sold on craigslist then get a 100 emails from dudes asking me if the parts which I'm selling will fit on vehicles they were not made for. I always replied with, figure it out, you know what I'm selling do your own research.

 

Can you tell us the sizes (ID and OD) of the shims you use? All of the other companies have that info readily available, at least that way the tuner or re-builder can actually tell if they will fit before buying. When you have a shock laying on your bench its not always about wanting to buy from you, but what is available today at my local shops

 

where do you run the resi for the tacoma shocks??

 

Our stud sizes are 10mm on 2.0 shocks and 14mm on 2.5 shocks.

I still need to find a pic of one mounted for you guys, I will try harder this weekend.

 

Sub'd

 

where do the shocks ship from? 50$ to ship is a little much. still a little nervous to try these out with no one else here running them, But i am tempted. Do they have to use the stock springs??

 

Ship from NY if I remember correctly.

 

im going to be jumping on the 20% deal, will be ordering a set of the tacoma coilovers tomorrow hopfully.

 

You do not have to use the stock spring, any spring that fits is welcome

Shipping is from NY

 

Can the 2.0 c/o be ran with an aftermarket spring like OME?

 

I would guess no, you would want an afterkarket spring like Eibach. But since there aren't any details on what parts can be swapped we are forced to guess until someone pays first

 

Thanks I may get these instead of 5100's but the springs they offer arnt rated high enough, 500lbs is the most offerd on the website id like a 600#
