KW3 warranty

Hi Gents, I am not sure if this is the right forum to ask but my rear right KW3 shock is leaking so I am not sure if KW company will warrant it since I bought the suspension used from another board member. This sucks because I need to replace it asap for my 15 hours trip in Oct 2nd.... I will call them tomorrow and find out how they are gonna do it.

If you had any experience with these coils before then please give me some pointers.

Thanks!

youre probably not going to be able to get it back before your trip. they usually have to send the shock back to KW for warranty. also i think the warranty only applies to the original owner. contact the original owner to get the proof of purchase then contact the vendor that sold the kit to the original owner.

Ouch, thanks man... this sucks blue balls. I wish I had found this out sooner. The leaking isn't that bad but I just don't want anything to happen during the trip. Looks like I have to pay the full price for this shock.
