maybe but this was second hand. for me most likely not.

 

[alex456123]

contact them and dont tell them you got it second hand. Lol
that bullshit shouldnt happen second hand or not.
there is a lot of reasons that can happen. it was probley not correctly heat treated.

ive been reading that if you have too much compression with too soft of a spring it can bend the shaft. kinda makes sense but for it to just all of a sudden collapse in one fowl swoop like that i just dunno. not to throw geralds shock guy under the bus but i wonder if it was something he did when i sent it to him. i might try that alex. i mean what could it hurt right?

Idk ive hit alot more than little jumps and his work has never failed me

 

[CJCaldie]

yeah i just dunno. when i talked to him he sounded like i was in good hands. im just trying to figure it all out. and yeah ive hit bigger jumps too. we were just jacking around on this one and then all of a sudden, this.

 

[geeessfore]

Why dont you call him and see what he thinks or text him a pic. He doesnt just do it for a living he also rides quads and snowmobiles, so he may have a better idea.

 

[CJCaldie]

i was considering that. at least he could point me in the right direction to getting it fixed

 

[jimmyde78]

That's ******* crazy CJ! Glad you weren't hurt at least...

 

[CJCaldie]

SERIOUSLY. im actually surprised my ball joints didn't give way or anything!

 

[geeessfore]

Im going over there possibility tomorrow to drop of Elkas. Ill ask him

 

[CJCaldie]

cool Thanks man!

 

[CJCaldie]

i had to drive at least 5 miles through woops and big hill climbs like this to get back to my truck. ball joints binding all the way. might be time to finally get me some +2s. cause i have no idea how hard of a hit they took today

 

[jimmyde78]

I approve the above message....+2 Arms :tup:

 

[Warrior1996]

Wow, that is insane. Definitely inspect those balljoints for damage. Or like you said, get some +2's. Hopefully Works fixes it for you.

 

[geeessfore]

Idk if any have you ever tried called works but their customer service is a joke. I would be suprised if you even get a legit answer from them

 

[CJCaldie]

i talked to a guy a while back about the stopper whatever sleeves for the dual rate springs and he basically told me he wouldn't do anything for me unless i at least sent them in for a full service.

 

[CJCaldie]

they would most likely rape me for servicing these. well see what Guy has to say about them but im thinking im better off all out replacing them

How tight did you have the mounting bolts and were the shocks free moving in the mounts?
