Has anyone done any business with Extreme Suspensions? I'm thinking about ordering up my lift here shortly (decided not to go the SAS route...wouldn't be putting it to it's full potential

). But I would like to get some input about them before hand. Anyone?

We had a 4x4 shop here in Salt Lake that went OOB called Extreme 4x4. Could it be the same guy?

Extreme acquiered Dick Cepeks suspensions, shocks and lights while Mickey Thomson got the tires.

Don't think so, Extreme Suspensions is located in Texas. http://www.extremesuspensions.com/index.php

Not bad prices,i may look into them myself.

I bought my 6" Series II from Extreme Suspensions.
Overall I'd have to say they were decent. The price was pretty good, especially since I recieved the last 6" Series II that they had available. I guess they are making more. I am in So Cal and the they are in Texas, the shipping went very quickly.
When I was having trouble installing the kit these guys were absolutely NO HELP what so ever. On top of that the dick cepek directions suck hard so I was left to fend for myself. I don't mind that all that much, but it did bug me. The major problem I had with them is that they sent me some of the wrong hardware. i.e. wrong size bolts, and not all the nuts met up with the bolts (two different sizes).

It's a great kit, if you can get it it's worth it, but extreme suspensions isn't my favorite.

P.S. The big negative from them is that they are in Texas

Aikidoka · 04-29-2004, 07:42 PM

Did you go get the correct stuff yourself of did you get them to send you replacements for what did not line up?

bAdKARma88 · 05-04-2004, 11:15 PM

i got it myself

dkaska · 05-05-2004, 03:16 PM

something to think about, I hope those of you with Cepek Radius Arms would agree that they are the beefiest looking out there. I just checked out the Rancho arms, Superlift and none are boxed like the Cepek ones. I don't. If you don't like Tehaz there's another company is California (can't recall name) that is the Rep for extreme sus.
I thought there was a group buy going on at one time w/ FSB.

dkaska · 05-05-2004, 03:19 PM

It was Jeff @ performance somethin suspesions. The kit was complete and Jeffs great to work with. Just ditch the blocks. I got Procrap paks for $275.00 with a Heineken discount through a buddy @ 4WPWH
Good Luck.

dkaska · 05-05-2004, 03:24 PM
