I think they're oil filled? I don't think they would be bad at all.

ye bud they are oil filled. just trying to see if anybody has any experienc with them. i can get some brand new sw20 agx shocks with the tx nut spacer brand new for only an extra 150 so trying to make a decision.

I have one sitting next to me (short stroke)

Body length 400mm

Piston length (from top of casing to bottom of threaded area) - 210mm

Piston travel - 192mm

Overall length (top of thread to bottom of cartridge) 656mm

I've never used them, but they are stiff as fucking anything.

Wherever it was, they were a whole lot cheaper than $215....

Yeah, 215 sounds a bit steep...
