Raptor Community - Stock 2.5 shock rebuild exchange program.

@m3dragon if I box up my shocks (full set of 4) and send them to you for a full rebuild with valves, flutter stack, etc., about how long is the turn-around time?

I just sent my exchange shocks back today. Adam rebuilt them for me back before the exchange program started. It was a great experience then and it was a great experience with Paul this time as well. I highly recommend the flutter stack upgrade. The ride is almost as soft as bottom perch while on mid perch. I am however getting a lot of nose dive on mid perch with flutter stack as opposed to mid no flutter stack. Shipping from Paul's location to mine in Marietta, GA was $63 and it was $69 back to Paul. I get a UPS discount rate. I wish I was closer to Paul so they could do the whole 9 yards for me but $132 shipping plus few hours labor will have to for do now until someone local starts rebuilding them.

Once they land at our door it is 48 hours or less. All depends if it is a AM or PM drop off. If Paul and I are there same time it is 1 hour to do a all 4 shocks.

Shipping is the part we can't control. Ground shipping is 3-5 days depending on where you are as these things are heavy. Ship any faster and it is $$$$.

If you want to send them direct shoot a email to our new email address. [email protected] - made it easier to track things.

I just got a set shipped to me and opted for the flutter stack but stayed on bottom perch. I wonder how bad the nose dive will be [emoji51]

You got any before/after pics going from low to mid?
Did you do the swap yourself?

No doubt you will enjoy the smoother ride. I don't think you will feel as much of a difference on bottom perch as there is quite a bit of nose dive already.

Sorry I don't. I went from mid to mid. There's a lot of threads on this forum about mid perch so I'm sure you can find some pics. I swapped the rears myself but had a shop do the front's.

What's the difference between level 2 and 3 valving? I want to get all I can get out of these stock shocks.

From the website.

$80 – Level 1 – Set up for more aggressive off-road but still very street-able – Shims increase from 0.012 to 0.015
$160 – Level 2 – Even more aggressive off-road, customized progressive stack with a mix of 0.015 & 0.020 shims
$180 – Level 3 – Very aggressive off-road, customized progressive stack with mostly 0.020 shims

I have stage 1 and their flutter stack. Way better off road...
