 The next time that happens, you can put a bolt in the hole where that pin
goes, and this will be more than sufficient to get you home.

 I've been running an RE suspension since '02 and have been very pleased with
it. Great to hear about their improved product support.

 I haven't even purchased anything from them & am very happy with the
service.
a couple of years ago I went to the shop & expressed my concern about
highway handling of their long arm lift kit. I had determined
from much reading & asking that most kits did well off road - but I had not
seen or heard anything about highway handling. I asked if they had something
like a demo or loaner vehicle that I might try before buying. They told me
no.......but then one of the guys behind the counter (I believe his name was
Paul) offered to let me drive his personal vehicle. I was impressed. I was
very impressed & as soon as I get the money together, I am going back to
make the purchase.
