Awesome , it is literally broken in half , the only reason it is not scraping on the floor is cause of tape!
From what I saw it looked pretty easy to replace , thoughts ? Also I would be more than happy to pay you !! Let me know when I can grab them from you , thank you sir

I have some stock shocks if you need one. They are not the rubi's but they are useable.

Why don't you have it replace by the dealer, isn't it under warranty?

I've got some spares as well, and work in the HB (Bolsa & Bolsa Chica) area if you need one.

Just spoke to this really cool service manager at oc jeep where I bought the car , I told him what happened and he started chuckling and said he was happy that I was driving it like it was meantto be driven, he said technically it was not coverd but he will pull a few strings and get it done for me , if not he said I could bring my own shock and he would put it in for free , I could do it ok my own but if he will do it for free why not huh , cool stuff

I figured the same , thought it was worth a try and it probably was
