The two times I took it in for warranty work on the suspension, they couldn't fix it. Took it to Wholesale Suspension and it was fixed within 30 mins. Plenty of good forum sponsors on here will look after ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust your instincts, that's what I'm learning. Hard thing is finding a convenient and good place to take it.
