I feel like I already know the answer to my question, but here it goes.

A few weeks ago I bought a suspension kit from Strano and just got around to beginning the install tonight. During the install I noticed one of the rear shocks would not return to fully extended on it's own as the other would and just stay wherever I put it. Am I right in thinking it's faulty out of the box, and has anyone had this happen before?

I am going to go out on a limb and say after 206 views and no responses, no one has input lol.

Yes it's busted, new parts can be bad. Call Sam to get a new part or maybe you have to RMA it direct to Koni. But call Sam and he'll tell you what to do.

I thought I remember him saying due to the design it was normal for some not to return to a fully extended state. I have mine still sitting in a box and one or two doesnt seem to extend.

Thanks! From what I can tell in that thread, it might be fine still. I haven't had a chance to do a test drive (I only get an hour here and there after the kids go down and am doing the whole suspension) so I will see how it rides I suppose. There is resistance when I push and pull it, although it doesn't feel as much as the other one is.

I can say I tried "bouncing" the car when on the ground and it didn't keep going like there was a bad shock, so I suppose that is good.

All else I'll call Sam and see what he thinks, I'd hate to go through RMA if it's fine.
