Yes, they were supposedly the original supplier of the SHO
struts........BUT......that doesn't mean that the struts they now sell that
are listed as fitting a SHO are the SHO struts. Very good chance that they
are standard SLO struts, like Midas, KYB and the rest. When a mfr makes
parts to an OEM spec, it doesn't not mean that they would then offer that
part.

Someone mentioned that Sachs was the OEM of SHO struts.  Is this true?  I
just
ordered a set from shox.com for $60 each + shipping.
