I cant wait! I had your springs on my stock shocks for a month or so now and the anticipation for koni's is killing me!

I'll keep an eye on here for more updates. Thanks Sam!
Why would you purchase second hand and give up your warranty?

Springs. Coming very, very soon. I am indeed air-freighting them to speed them up, that's a done deal. They'll be here long before the front Koni's.
any chance any DA's came with that shipment?

Well I posted the warranty terms from their website; if you think somehow it would fit your situation then go for it. You need to have the original purchase receipt, and your name would have to be on it.

Sorry, no... The warranty is to the original purchaser only.

This wait reminds of the the recent long waiting period for AR-15 parts, ammo or anything really related to ATF. Did Nobama's taking of office have anything to do with Koni sales to skyrocket above its supply?

I got my koni rears from Sam and they weren't evil or black and didn't require a form 4 but it does seem like the same waiting game! Hopefully the government won't start up a "Kash for Konis" program and hold up things further.

Well, today is the day you have been waiting for. Just got the call, Koni's have arrived and will start shipping tomorrow.

Better news.... Not only are there enough to fill all the backorders, but also about 25 car sets available beyond!

Please, we have over 50 sets on backorder. If you have some on backorder, they will ship out according to which orders are the oldest. If I spend all my time talking to each person, I can't get the parts shipped.

Thank you for your patience!
