Shocks 1992 Front and Rear (1 Viewer)

Can anyone sell me on Fox shocks for $129 each?

How much lift and what is the use?

 

[Hankg550]

Actually I put in just an example fox shock. Sorry and disregard the lift portion. Stock height with stock springs.

Is your truck staying stock in the near future? The Fox IFP 0-2” lift shocks are decent entry level off road performance shocks for the price. But there’s nothing magic happening over just replacing your tired old worn shocks with new ones especially if your truck doesn’t leave the pavement often.

Consider OEM Tokico shocks too as an option and fair price.

Mostly just camping. Pictures below. Pretty much 5-9mph max as the trails are pretty jarring if you go faster.

5-9mph

Stick with OEM if still available.

Did you air down your tires at all? That makes a huge difference on roads like the ones you posted above. Try between 15-18 psi.

I went with OEM for (i think) 40-50 a piece. And they ride amazing with my 2.5 OME lift springs.

oem sounds like a good idea and also airing down the tires. I was at 29psi during our trips.

You can use stock height shocks with a 2.5” lift? Might have to look into some new springs too then!

 

[thabruiser]

Yes. OEM shocks are almost exactly as long as the Old Man Emu 2.5" lift kit shocks. Which is why I went OEM. There are multiple threads of the short life span of Old Man Emu shocks.

Ok

 

[thabruiser]

No you shouldn't have any problems.

Thank you!
