I recommend Ong"s debongers very strongly.  His service, if you need it, is first class and very prompt.  I should add that it was a hard landing that caused me to send a shock back, not a failure of the unit.
 
New Zealand is a long way away if you need service.
 
I have close to 400 hours on mine and not a deflate in sight!

Subject: [LML] Shock Struts for 360

I'm in the market for shock struts as well.  As we know, the options are Tim Ong's and John Spry's.  It seems no matter which one is used, the owner is extremely happy.  In fact, I don't know anyone that is dissatisfied with their choice.

However, I'm told that if Tim's deflate, you're stuck where you are until it's fixed.  If John's deflate, however, you still have the spring but no shock absorber and you can still get home -- at least, that's what I've been told.

Opinion is unanimous, however, that the rubber donuts suck. 

Me, I'm still building, and I can defer this expense until the day before I fly, but I might want to get in on an order for a pair of Spry struts if we're putting one together.
