after searching the threads I cannot find anyone who has commented about these shocks. Too stiff, too soft etc. all the same questions. Just wondering what you wonderful people might have to say.

They repaint some for their lift kits.

Okay so these are "re-box" units. Who is the OEM?
You guys with the calmini kits feel free to give me an opinion.

Thanks

I can't speak for CALMINI, I would ask them.

However far as I know Tenneco Automotive Inc. the parent for Rancho, Gabriel, and lots of other shocks and stuff.

There're a decent shock on par/similar to the Rancho 5000 series but costumed valued/made for CALMINI I believe that just come with blue boots, nothing is repainted. Stiffer than stock

IIRC, there was a post i can't find now that said CALMINI uses Monroe or Gabriel shocks, but that they are manufactured to CALMINI's specs.

Did you find an application that matches the additional travel or go back to the stock listing?

I have a pair from SLR that Spencer welded up so I'd stop breaking them.

So is Calmini ditching the Delrin then? If so I wonder if they'll send out replacements for those who ask? Or at least give us a good price on them? laugh

I have no idea. I have requested it, and am looking for some that will fit.
