I have the BDS lift with the fox coilovers on my f-150. However I do not know if they will fit. I don't see why they wouldn't though.

Not mine, but a target fixation for me.

let us know your opinion on them if you don't mind. I did the rear fox 2.0s on my fabtech 6 inch already and it was night and day. Just not sure if the 1800 dollar fronts are going to be a huge difference or not. My truck rides amazing right now with the stock front coils and shocks on spacers so I'm hesitant to change it unless it truly is an upgrade

The ride on the fox 2.5 coilovers is pretty good. You'll notice a big difference. It won't be as smooth of a ride though as the stock struts. Most of the ride improvement is when you hit pot holes and dips. They just absorb it all so well. They take about a 1000 miles to break in as well so if you get them don't be to quick to judge them. I would however look into the DSC controls and check them out. I also took off the anti-sway bar on the front of my truck and it made a big difference in the ride and you don't even hardly notice it's gone with the 2.5 coilovers. Can't say I would recommend removing it just because it is a safety piece but if you do pick these shocks it is something I'd say to possibly try out and get your own opinion on.

Any time. Your experience may be a bit better than mines as well on the ride quality because my wheel and tire package isnt exactly known for providing the smoothest ride.

I'm running 35 inch toyo mts on an 18 inch wheel. Had almost the same setup except it was on a leveled 2010 supercab and it rode like a Damn covered wagon on the Oregon trail compared to the same setup on my 6 inch lift on the 15. Not sure if it's anything to do with suspension design change or if it's just a level vs lift ride difference but I couldn't believe how different the two trucks were

I couldn't tell you man. I'm running a 22 on a 35. With toyo m/t's. Yours might of been different ply on tires maybe or air pressure levels.
