And who knows, maybe you'll get a set of spare shocks out of the deal...

FYI...

I had a shock fail After 15 months under normal driving conditions

I had a funny noise and noticed oil dripping down the shock body. I called my supplier informed them that my front drivers side +2" shock was leaking oil and rattling two days later a new one arrives at my shop doorstep, free of charge (under warranty). No questions asked. I replaced it myself

I ran terrafirmas for a while....no issues. Ran Rancho RS9000s for a while (got them for about $35 a pop bc I was working for Tenneco). Then I decided to quit messing around and bought Fox 2.0s for the rear. Fronts are on the short list. Custom valving, user rebuildable, and much higher quality than any of the twin tube shocks. Just my 2 cents.
