Yeah, I think its pretty much shot. Fully compressed with no-load on it at all.

The return process has begun. If anyone out there is considering purchasing new suspension parts I highly recommend www.shox.com. I no longer had my orignal proof of purchase, and Mark from shox was kind enough to take time out of his day to look up my order, print a duplicate invoice, fax it to Koni, and call Koni to get the wheels rolling on this.

 

yes

 

maybe mine will blow soon

 

Looks like my stock fronts right before I replaced them.

 

How long does stock and after market shocks usually last?

 

Do you usually drive pretty hard? How did it blow out?

I don't think I'm any harder on the car than anyone here. I have a feeling it was just bad from the Koni factory.
