Funny, eEuroparts is the one that canceled my order for the fronts because they said they couldn't ship. I spoke with them this morning and got now where. I ended up ordering the rears from FCP Euro and fronts off eBay from an outfit I've ordered from before. We'll see if I get tracking info tomorrow.

Welp, I ended up having to buy them from overseas. No issues. Shipped from lithuania with express international shipping. Cost me grand total $366 for the 2 spheres.

Good luck trying to obtain them here in America. Also the distributor that is here in my state claims that the febi fronts are discontinued....

Problem also companies don’t have them in stock, their distributors do and they too won’t ship. I think I’m all my calls they suggested the spheres can only be moved via container in large quantity with special permits and frequently mentioned is common carriers can’t ship.

it’s a stupid mess. I see no hazmat risk with the accumulators as the nitrogen is in a rubber diaphragm encased in a very hard metal shell. Thank God overseas sellers are reasonable otherwise I’d have a totally fked suspension with shot front spheres and brand new rear ones
