thanx for everyones interest and support! the pictures of the pistons on the site are actually 1.1" in diameter! it was too hard to get a good pic of the pistons in actual size. i can make the piston any size i want. What was going to do is get a pc of clear tube, cap one end and then turn the opposite end into what a normal shock looks with orings sealing the shaft. pretty easy actually, doesnt have to be precise just seal on the bottom. now when i have time to do it , that is more of an issue!
Mike i may need you to talk to mikey about MFG these things in bulk soon, my fingers are hurting! it takes longer to clean them up than it does to machine them!

Jtipsy, i appreciate your words. in these times of negativity its good to hear a non complaint every once in a while!
