What is the average expected lifespan before the fox 2.0 rear shocks need to be replaced. I know there is a lot of variables with this question. My uses would be daily driver, normal roads from smooth to washboard gravel ,no off roading and light trailer usage. Thanks

 

They are rebuildable, you don't have to replace them. Full service interval for you with some street and some dirt/gravel would be 10,000 miles and they need to be cleaned and checked every 1,000 miles.

These things need to be sent in and serviced every 10K?! That's absurd!

 

If you want to play, you have to pay. The interval is a lot higher if you never leave pavement. 50k then.

 

I meant to say rebuilt. Looks like there is an authorized dealer/rebuilder not too far from home. Still would have to ship them though. Thanks

 

I think I'll be looking for alternatives to the Fox when I get a new F150. My 2010 has had Bilsteins on it for about 60k miles. They're holding up just fine.

 

Bilsteins are good for life.

 

Does this apply for the Fox 2.0 Coilovers as well?

 

Yes. But my local shop who I trust says don't worry about it. I plan to run them until they're performing poorly.

 

The manual for the 2.0 rears says to service them at 50k miles. Given how relatively inexpensive they are and how simple they are to install, I'd probably just buy new ones at that point.
