Peeps,

I see threads all over for both options. Obviously everyone will have their own opinion, which is what I'm looking for. I want to upgrade my crappy stock Fx4 shocks on my 2017 Screw but want opinions from people that have the Fox 2.0's or the Bilstein's installed on their truck.

If you have the Bilstein's, please let me know what series of them you are running.

If you select other, please post what yours are and your experience with them.

I'm probably looking at replacing the rears first, then the fronts later down the road.

Thanks

 

I replaced my rear shocks with Fox 2.0s and love them. They made a huge difference in ride quality.

 

bilstein 5100,s all around max level on front , love the look, definitely more firmer truck like ride. Glad I did it.

 

Haven't tried Fox, due to price, but did a full Bilstien on the 16 and rears on the 14, and the difference is night and day.

 

I have 5100s and they are awesome, as they have been on everything else I have put them on. Couldnt justify the Fox prices, considering they arent even adustable on the truck kind of defeats the purpose of coilovers.

 

+1 - love them. Made the ride 100% better. Great shocks.

 

I'm facing the same choice. Seems whichever people have is what they recommend. In all my searches I only saw one post of someone who claimed to have both. He said he had the 5100s but didn't love them and switched to the fox 2.0. In his mind, fox was way better. Would love to hear from anyone else who has used both.

 

Went with 5100s because they're a good value, ran them before, and had no problems.

What steered my from Fox was price and that some people here had a bad experience with Fox (product and warranty issues). There wasn't many, but a few. Didn't want to take a chance. So stayed with Bilsteins.

 

Went with the 4600 Bilstein in the rear for now. Be switching out the fronts here in the next couple of months. Went with the 4600 because I'm not going to lift the front and I had them on an old truck and liked the quality and price.

 

All you're gonna get here is people selecting what they use, not necessarily what's best as evidenced here with people saying the Fox were too expensive to try.
