couple guys on pirate have used them and they work great. I was going to run their coilovers on the front of my truck, but I got a deal on a set of Fox 2.0's that I couldnt pass up.

I have a pair,the shocks are great for thier price.But I have had some issuses with mine.I would call it a "new company teething problems" over all.

I bought them "used",but they were freshly serviced from FOA(verified)before I got them,(IE the shocks had not been ran since they were sent to FOA)and I feel that part lacked a little.As the shocks still had leaks,(reason they had sent to been "serviced" as they were less than 2weeks old at that time)and had machine whiskers, and scrap still in the shocks.lots of teflon in the oil,and one of the wear bands had a pretty large gap. Maybe they were a late friday assembly/service I dont know....but..


The shocks look to be a great shock for the $$$$,but FOA's assemebly to me lacked a little on this pair of shocks.Like I said maybe it was a late friday kind of thing.

one thing I would recomend is to up grade the top cap, and lower mouting end for replaceable heims/uniballs.As the ones that are supplied with the the shocks are lower end.Not a bad thing,but they will wear out sooner.

Customer service is good,with FOA.But Im glad I had gotten mine from Fibertech in santee ca. from Eric.As he is going the extra mile to get them fixed for me.

Unless I find a deal on one of the "bigger" brands of shocks, sway a way,king, fox,rad flo,ADS, etc I will be buying anouther pair of FOA'a for the rear of my truck.But I will also be pulling them apart to see "what's" inside.
