I tried messing around and placed orders anyway on the sites that still had it listed and received emails of order cancellation due to the stop sale. I was bored lol.

I personally just ended up buying used ones from a CL member and if the shocks go out, I'll try to complain to the dealership or corporate to replace it like Kaze did on post 36 as if I already had it on my car prior to the stop sale.

Let me know if you hear anything too. Good luck.

yea ive tried messing around with sites as well. Im hoping they will at least make one more batch before killing it off because my stock shocks are due for a change and I would prefer to get the fsport over kybs for my awd. I really dont want to have to buy coils.

The reason that there is a stop sale on the f sport shocks has nothing to do with not containing install instructions... It is because the rear shocks are prone to failure and leakage... This is coming straight from my childhood friend at Lexus who is the parts manager.. I agree and I've said this b4 that Sewell has great customer service and they fix the issues that may arise but I too have bought thousands of dollars of stuff from the site and there is an issue more times then not... Some people say that they're great and no issues others say they have screwed up every order they have ever placed.... Just for example... I bought a set of gfx side skirts from them received the skirts and they were madador red painted over with one coat of nebula gray... the point is the skirts were still clearly red... Yeah awesome that when I contacted them and after sending pics to prove the ****ty over paintjob they sent me a new set after I returned the old ones but how many times can they send messed up parts n then go oh I'm sorry I'll fix it... Shouldn't it have been done right the first time? I ordered awd f sport floor mats... They sent me rwd which dont fit... Returned oh sorry here are the correct ones... This is a pattern not a fluke thing that happens every now and then... And not for nothing but if you had a part with a stop sale on it from corporate would you sell the item to your customers without even telling them there is a stop sale on the item?

RWD pn below:
Old version Fsport shocks:
PTR13-53080
PTR13-53081
PTR13-53082

New version:
PTR13-53093
PTR13-53094
PTR13-53095

It's really subjective when it comes to wear and tear items bc it's all based on driving conditions.
