I can't blame you on ditching those 2.1's when you're being told it's another 2 months before you get them. Crazy.

Ill let let you know, I been seeing different times on the shocks on here and wrangler forum.

They are shipping from quadratic so maybe they had them in stock from my original order of the 2.1.

Well see friday.

That does suck, I know I'd be getting a little worked up after waiting that long! I know they're working as fast as they can to get these into customers hands, I think there is MUCH more demand than they anticipated and since they're all hand assembled by a small (but growing) crew, there is going to be a bit of a bottle-neck initially. Lets hope they get caught up quickly!

They did have 3.1 in stock so I cancelled my order and picked up the 3.1 and they gave me a discount through the site I ordered from 901.00$ they should be here Friday. From what I was told.

I also got my atz p3 in
That's awesome that they upgraded you from the 2.1's to the 3.1's with a discount... I'm jealous!

Awesome, that wasn't too bad for a wait. When are they going on?

So far I only took the jeep out a little today. You can definitely feel the difference from stock, I also put on my fox steering stabilizer, might have to change that out. Took me about 7 hrs to install the lift, control arms, jks sway bar disco .... then found out the top bolt for the jks won't fit the sway bar. So back to quadratic or I may get the drill out.

Awesome, I know a LOT of people have been unhappy with the wait... but I can tell you, it's worth it! Hopefully you have a chance to get them on soon!

Lots of great initial feedback on the Falcon shocks. Anyone have more wheeling feedback yet? Hit a rock yet? It would be great to hear what springs people are running with the shocks too. Thanks,
