I don't know anymore information than has been stated. Chris just emailed me and said all orders cannot be processed.

I have already contacted those of you with pending orders through me. If I haven't sent you a PM you are fine and your order is in transit.

Sorry for the problems, but it is out of my hands.

We do carry Fox coil-overs at alljeep.com if those will work for you.
 
Thanks for the heads up Davy, that really sucks about FOA.... hope everyone is all right. My order can wait, no rush here!

Keep us posted if Chris decides to share what happened, really hope they recover soon and get back to cranking out affordable parts!
 
OK.... I got the OK to post about the shop.

Bottom line... we had a fire while we were all in Baja. The entire shop has burned to the ground. Total loss. We have absolutely nothing at this point. It's a rediculous mess and just sad to see.

We have already secured a new location in Vegas, we have ordered seals and some other outside vendor parts already so we hope to be able to do service work in a couple weeks once the new shop is setup.
New product will obviously take longer.
We have alot of work to do and have already begun. The new shop will be larger than the old one, we'll have great new equipment and a renewed spirit as well I believe.
The amount of well wishes and support has been overwhelming truthfully. From offers of machine work from outside shops, customers saying they'll hold off on thier projects until we are back up, to people wanting to come down and just help clean up..... it's been great and a well needed lift for all of us.
While I'm saddened at what has happened, I'm excited for what the future holds for us. We'll be down for a bit, but certainly not out.
Thanks much for all the good wishes everybody!!
Chris and the FOA staff.

Sucks!
Atleast no one was in the building and injuries...
 
Alljeep also has a few other options for bumps and coil-overs if sway a way doesn't work for you.

fires are lame, kurt knows:(

Yup, I can't even guess how many years were taken off my life by the stress :eek:

Thankfully with the help of my friends and family we put all the prices back together. Here is to hoping the same comeback to FOA :cool:

heh, spoken like a true business owner. :D Kidding aside, it IS all about the bottom line: no shop means no sales, and that sucks for everyone. :( Hope they get back on their feet ASAP.
