Air Shock Lifespan

@morrisdl: have you already tried fitting the AMK? If so, did you try it with the re-location bracket from Tactical? I'm looking for a glimmer of hope....maybe the Arnott is it.
Okay now that I've clicked the link: this could really save my bacon in terms of not needing to ruin my sliders. It looks a lot smaller than the AMK. The fact that it fits in the OE box is encouraging, but someone will have to verify that it mounts in the same spot and "lives" in the same spatial envelope. It sure has a small heat sink, too, compared to the AMK. I hope that doesn't lead to issues with overheating. I may go without the acoustic box myself, since the sliders protect it. That would help with the dissipation of heat.

off topic but Yes - the AMK w/the TR relo bracket still requires cutting of the RS slider. It will all bolt together, but the touching makes a horrible racket. I didnt want to cut, so I went the rebuilt Hitachi route. I have never used the acoustic compressor box since I put my sliders on ~5 years ago. I agree heat is the enemy.
