Default Fox Performance 2.0 Rear Shocks Installed!

So the last couple weeks I have been going back and fourth from 5100's to 9000xl's to the 2.0's and I finally decided to try the 2.0's. After putting them on I took a little oil field dirt road by my house to try them out and I must say, what a difference!!! I figured that the ride might either be the same or a little better just because they are not Fox's best shocks but they surprised me. For $120 a piece they made a huge difference in how my rear end takes bumps. Now i can tell how bad my front end is now! That will be the next project, some camburg UCA's and Fox 2.5 Coil overs with reservoirs! Save, save, save!

Now I have something to look forward to when I get my truck lifted! Hope these will smooth the ride up a bit!

It really sucks knowing that I will be getting all of this done soon. It makes me really anxious and want to just knock it out, but I have to be patient and focus on school.

Looking to replace my stock rears with the Fox 2.0s. The truck has 48,000 miles and lately the rear end has been jumping sideways over rail tracks, potholes, etc. I am looking for something a little smoother and think I have settled on these. How have they been working out for those that have them set up in the rear? Also, best place to get them online?

These are installed upside down.... The body of the shock goes on the bottom - just as the factory ones were on. Fox 2.0 shocks don't have a plastic boot over the shaft so I guess it confuses many people
