Default No Parts Pit Bull Shocks!

I ordered a set of the Kronik shocks to try on the Vanquish Ultra. Called Kim @ Pit Bull for a seal kit part number, there is not one, $180 set of shocks and they have not any seals or parts for them. Already have my Amain Return Auth. for when they arrive.

That is unfortunate for a set that's so pricey, though I have taken measurements of O-rings on some shocks so I could order X-rings in the same size. That might be an option for you if you're up for it.

I thought of doing that but I was led to believe it was some new design so I'm not sure if I would find a replacement. Think I will buy something you can get parts for, any ideas for a quality 80mm shock?

Don’t know how much of a rush you’re in, but I’m sure at some point VP will release the incision 80mm shock from the ultra kit, or perhaps you can find some take offs.

I believe Gmade has a piggy back 80mm shock, never used it myself but heard decent things about their shocks.

I was going to take the Vanquish 80mm from the Ultra kit and put them on a Limited that I put portals on. And then the Pit Bull's on the new Ultra. guess I'll wait the the Incision's to come out seperate.

Just throwin this out there, maybe this might help

They look exactly the same(well to me they do) as the pitbulls, might be an exact fit. Just a thought,please don't quote me on the PL kit working on/with the pitbull shocks. I wouldn't know for sure if they would work.

Thanks Frank for the idea. The shocks will be to me on Monday, I may just return them to AMain. Pit Bull did read my Facebook private message but for whatever reason has not responded to my question about seals/parts.

Well it has been 5 days since I re-messaged Pit Bull on spare parts for the shocks and nothing.
