Why isn't Radflo popular?

I have been running radflos for about 2 years. They have been through 2 winters in the northeast with heavy salt. I came from icon and fox setups and the radflos definitely hold up better to those conditions then the others. Mine still look pretty much new.

Overall, I have been very happy with my setup. I recently moved back to the west coast and have been mobbing them a lot more at our orv parks. They have done great with everything I have thrown at them. From intermediate crawling to hauling through washboard and whoops.

To me the choice for suspensions was between radflos or ADS for all the reasons previously mentioned. I went with radflos because my friend Joe @Mobtown Offroad spoke highly of them and I trusted his input. I have really enjoyed them.

 

Whereabouts in NE did you used to live?

 

Delmarva, and they salt/brine the shit out of the roads. Also, have a lot of salt water to deal with.

 

Run them in a 2.5 14" coilover front with resivoir and a 2.5 rear emulsion shock, runs great! We advise customer on them for anybody wanting a good ride and spend a little more priced that Toytec.

 

Ok, one thing I have to say. Most of you guys talk like these are a steal or something but from what I can see they are on par in pricing as the big 3. Hell I can find King's for less money than these.
If you can tell me where to look to find them cheaper I'd appreciate it.

 

So my shop deals with them on a monthly basis.. The customer service and attention to detail is spot on. I'm done dealing with KING or FOX or ICON on warranty or issues with customers parts.. FOX/KING either don't answer the phone or FOX has their waiting list of approvals for warranty repairs, meanwhile my customer is shock-less or driving on blown up shocks/coil-overs. My girlfriend had ICON on her last Tacoma which the coil springs cracked and broken at an out of the box setting with no adjustments. They wouldn't cover it under warranty saying she must have jumped it. FIRST OF ALL, It's that what your company sells this shit for, get beat on it and drive it to work the next day? FOX has been on the ringer for 3 sets of 2.0 dumpster shocks that blew seals on a factory, highway street queen. That latest pair in their SERVICE HUB has yet to be touched as of acknowledgment. RADFLO might be a little more expensive but take it from a person who calls day in and day out for customers with issues from the other companies. I'm down for a couple hundred dollars more worth investment and knowing that I don't need a court case to get a freaking warranty replacement.


SORRY FOR THE RANT...

 

The KING/FOX sold by ACCUTUNE is one thing because they can valve it how you want, which you are paying for from their company. They also do great work too! I do believe RADFLO was once with TOYTEC making their coil-over and shocks. I'm under the impression that TOYTEC ditched them due to cost and wanted more margin.

 

What sold me on Radflo was speaking to Shawn at Radflo. We must of talked for a hour on the phone about options and other configurations.

 

Hey I'm not saying that customer service doesn't have any value. It matters alot, as a matter of fact it may be the reason I go with Radflo. I spoke to Andrew there the other day and he seemed very knowledgeable and answered all my questions.
I was just wondering why people mention that they are cheaper when in fact they are about the same price as other companies.

Radflo does this themselves when you order from them (another awesome selling point). From what I understand they are built to order and need to know about the customers truck to tune the shocks appropriately.

I really am leaning towards Radflo.

 

Thanks for the reference. We don't charge to tune shocks when you buy them from us, thats a free service we provide. In addition to the free valving, we offer 25% off future rebuilds. Totally understand the frustrations involved with the larger shock companies...

 

Just found this thread, and after looking at Radflow's website, it doesn't appear they offer a remote reservoir set up for either front or rear on our (3rd gen) trucks? Am I missing something? Or is an OE style replacement all they offer?

Seriously, I had no idea Radflow even existed, but I am definitely intrigued after reading every post in this thread so far.... I am actually mortified by the horror stories I am hearing about King and Fox, with regards to warranty support and longevity issues...

Lastly, I just got done perusing AccuTune's website and am super encouraged by them, as they are a hop skip & a jump from my place. Great articles and comparisons on their site.

@AccuTune Offroad
If I were to go with a stage 3 King or Fox package through you guys, what's the cost for install? PM me if you would like, but I am 2 days in to reading everything I can about suspension and lifts, in an effort to try and make an informed decision.... I am still just as lost, and have more decision constipation now, than I had when I started...

 

PM sent!

 

Do a search for 6CT 007 1R for the 05+ Coil overs with reservoir at radflo.com 6ST 002 0R for the rears. We have shocks for lifted rear as well.

 

Well hello there! I am interested in some of your shocks.

 

Sorry Accutune, I knew it wasn't an extra fee. Worded wrong on my part. Ryan and the crew do great work! Keep it up!

 

You can contact us through radflo.com or call.

 

Could you please tell me are the coilovers that you listed the extended length ones? Could you please provide me the stoke length of those? Thanks in advance!

 

PM Sent.

 

About to order and really hoping you guys do a Black Friday discount???????
