    New Ironman 4x4 Foam Cell Pro Shocks

    Hey Guys,

    As I'm sure many of you have probably seen on our Facebook page, today is the grand release of our Foam Cell Pro shocks!

    These shocks are a no compromise product, built to tackle anything you throw at them from, the daily school run to a run across the canning or simpson. These shocks are an evolutionary step for our suspension program, combining all the best elements of shocks into a single product.

    These have been designed for Australian conditions and we'd challenge anyone to find a better bolt on shock - infact we dare you to compare! Remote res, competitor foam cell etc. We have built these to be the best. We looked at all options for technology and design, including remote res, and decided upon a Foam Cell twin tube due to their robust design and excellent performance offroad.

    They have a 3mm outer steel tube (which is as thick as our bullbars) so they are one tough unit!

    RRP is $220 for shocks and $286 for the height adjustable struts. So not only are they an amazing shock, they are also excellent value!

    Let me know if you have any questions!

    Is the 220 per shock, for a pair, or a set of four? Do they come to suit a 4" lift? What testing has been done?

    Cheers

    It's $220 per shock. So that makes it $880 for all 4x corners.

    Hey Mate, yes they come for a 4" kit too. We'll be doing 2, 4, 8 and 8" kits.

    And we've dont a lot of testing using dynos for long term longevity testing of the components (I'll post up a video link tomorrow) and we've also done some 70,000-100,000km (can remember off the top of my head) of testing on our company vehicles both on and offroad around Australia (across a range of models). We've also had some armored vehicle and defense vehicles overseas using them for over 12 months now (and those armored vehicles are generally around 5 ton).

    Catchinjack,

    As I've already said on the 4x4 Earth Forum when you said the same thing that I'm here and happy to help out with any issues you might have. Shoot me a Pm with your vehicle, your accessories, your loads and the type of driving you're doing along with what your having issues with them and I'll see what I can do to help sort you out.

    Cheers,

    Matt

    That's pretty good service in my opinion Catchinjack. Jump on board, PM Matt and let them try and sort it out for you.

    I had these in my surf. Couldn't fault them. This is one that's already on the to do list.

    Currently doing my research to fit new shockers and springs to my GQ, how would these compare to Koni 82s or 88s matched with King springs?
