What's the hold up with Strange?

I ordered my front DA shocks 6 weeks ago yesterday. I can understand a delay due to the current world scenario, but this seems a bit excessive.

It is much worse in many other areas. Try getting appliances for RV's or say an onan generator. Onan has stopped all production due to lack of parts to build their machines. Lumber shortages. We just replaced our entire kitchen the the table and chairs we ordered are on back order for 4 months. Maybe longer. Sucks

There should be no excuses. The world is rolling and always had been. I ordered wheels from .CA to IN during th worst of the pandemic. They still got made, shipped and arrived in 1 week.

Bout time.

I bought the #250 springs seperately, so they didnt come with a preset ride height. Not sure if they would have anyway. But any ideas on where I should start? The front is sitting a little low right now from the extra weight under the hood. Planning to raise it just a tad at least. The ultimate goal is weight transfer, so I’m guessing the rebound should be somewhat loose.
