Amee contacted me on Sunday and will be sending out a replacement shock on Monday!
Sounds like another feather in DB's cap - there are very few companies that will call to help you with your problem on a Sunday!

Hats off to DB for backing their product,it's easy to sell something but the true test is rectifying a problem,they must be given that chance. Then if this does not happen I guess they are out of here.

Love to see some photos of how that turned out! I'm thinking of trying to put mine in the center dash panel, so I can get to it with either hand

What prevents over filling the shocks and blowing out the seals on this system? Is the dump valve also a pressure relief valve? It seems like that could of been what happened to BH. Just curious. I am defintitely going to be looking for a air pressure gauge to adapt to this system.

I am also adding a gauge to monitor the air pressure. Of course I am still waiting for my Dragginbagger system to arrive. Not a big rush as that fricken four letter word (s***) is in this weeks forecast. This is the gauge I am thinking about:

The shocks should be able to handle the maximum pressure that the supplied compressor puts out. There is an ongoing issue with faulty shock seals that Tony is well aware of, and that was the reason for the delay in the original shipments. To be sure you do not have a leak, pump the system up to full extension and then add more air. A leak will then manifest itself by sound and you veryify the exact location with a soapy water test. Also, some leaks may not be prevalent until a certain pressure is reached. It may hold fine in the garage overnight, yet lose air when riding, and you won't have a clue till ya hit a bump.

What about the issue with the bolt hitting the exhaust.
Has this been handled?
