SAW's rebuilt

I've been out of state for a while and returned to my rebuilt SAW's. Like most things in life there's a story to be told:

My SAW rear shocks (2" rebuildable) had the origional valving (lets call this V 1). This was the valving that everyone hated due to how stiff it was. My wife hated riding in my fj because of it. I called Chris Rue at SAW and told him about my situation. He said he would re-valve and rebuild them for free due to V 1. The fronts were also V 1 and I had to buy new springs (700 ft. lbs as opposed to V 1, 625ft.lbs) but they were re-built.

All told with springs and shiping, front and rear - $240 and the fj rides nicer than it ever has.

I was very pleased with the customer service I recieved and I would now recommend the SAW's to anyone who's looking into a lift.

Yes but there was no charge for the rebuild. The cost was for new springs and seals for the front and shipping.

I'm happy with the way it feels. My only regret is not doing it sooner.
