a good guess of mine would be within two months. They killed my shocks less than 2k miles.

I'm on stock shocks with NF's and it's been about a year and a half. It still rides the same, maybe a little rough. Nothing to freak out about like people make it out to be.

What does anything have to do with everything dick face. Man I swear you ****s are everywhere on this forum. Its just a fact that I decided to point out for anyone who would like to know about tanabe nf's. I cant make a thread about this point because ****ing retards like you would actually take the time out to post the most useless reply. I took the time out to type this becuase im sick of yours and all other ********s on this site. I am a Z lover like most others on here. Just stop posting dumb responses and try to make this forum a lil more enjoyable instead of make it a dip in your moms **** (ruff and dry).

End rant...

Not sure why you started this thread one hour after you had already started another one asking the same exact question...

... continue it there, please.
