The warranty is indeed through Ranch and it says the warranty applies as long as it is installed on the original vehicle and owned by the person who had the shocks installed. I didn't really think about removing them, as this is my only means of transportation, and didn't want to deal with - give me these shocks and I will bring in the old ones later. They didn't have these in stock so I will get them installed next week, we will see about the cost and I will let you know after the fact.
