Cool!  I did not know that.  Things have changed since I last talked to
them - this was the deal with Bilstein, and when I bought Konis, I called
them to get the lowdown on how they did their warranties.  That was about a
year ago, maybe 9 months.  Maybe they realized the other system sorta
sucked.  Thanks for the note, though!  This will help me out if I ever need
it....
