He did say they sent an actual correct mount to Fox as an example this time - not sure why this was such a new idea...

But honestly - I am leaning toward just returning them and getting Bilstein 7100s if Simon or anyone else has the ones tuned for the D2 - not worth all this BS to save $500 at this point.

Not exactly what I would call "direct bolt...requires no modifications at all".

I would be calling fox directly to find out what the issue was.

I ended up getting RTE cross pin eliminators. Even with that they were a pain to install, I would hate to have to remove them outside of a shop environment (like on the trail)... If I were going to do it again, I would get Bilsteins for ease of installation.
