Okay, so is that a deal Hotckis has with Fox?
I have dealt with them lots and don't remember them ever having a life time warranty on any of their shocks, 1 to 3 years for defects at best. Not that it really matters, if the warranty does not cover the seals and oil because those are the items that need attention.
While we are talking shocks are the ones they supply you with gas/nitrogen charged?


Yes, our deal with Fox is a lifetime warranty. Seals and oil are wearable items and are not covered under warranty (unless obviously prematurely defective); we have had a few shocks prematurely leak on our customers in which case we RMA and send out a replacement.

Fox suggests a "service interval" of 50,000 miles on their street shocks where the seals and oil are replaced.
