Thanks, Robert.
I bought my set from ( hiding head in shame ) TAP, somehow I don't think th=
ey will be all that forthcoming with such kinds of generous acts.
If I were to call Shox.com I wonder if they would stand behind the warranty=
 ?

  I purchased a set of Bilsteins for the front of my urS6.  One gave up the=
 ghost after a while.  I called shox.com (I bought the first set from them)=
 and asked about warranty service.  I was told, "Order a new pair.  Pay for=
 them with your credit card and then return the defective cartridge for eva=
luation.  If it is bad we will refund the new purchase."

  I did.  It was.  They did - for BOTH new cartridges.  I did have to call =
a second time but they honored the warranty.

    Is there any BTDT on getting warranty service on these things ?
    Especially any Canadian experience with US purchased shocks ?
    These are supposed to be lifetime warranty right ? I overpaid for them =

    back then, and I will be damned if I buy Bilsteins again if they don't
    support there product.

    Any feedback ?
    Thanks,
