Shock upgrades?
Curious as to the popular stuff on the minor lifted guys. Leveled or lifted 4" or less. What shocks you got? How have they been working? If money was no object, what would you run? Thanks in advance.
if money was no option, i'd have kings, icon, or fox 2.5-3" shocks front and rear... but it wouldn't end with that... uniball style upper and lower control arms, rcv axle 1/2s, deaver leaf packs and matching bump stops from whatever shock manufacturer i had
They've been pretty good. Stiff. I've actually got a bushing going out on my driver front. Replacing them with something simple this time. going with Monroe as my truck drives around a lot and I'd like a smoother ride.
If money was no option I'd be running Fox struts up front and first gen raptor take-off rear shocks.
Currently I'm running a 2" spacer (soon to be rancho quick lift struts) and a 3" rear block. My rear shocks needed replaced, and a cheap upgrade for anyone running a taller rear block is to get salvage shocks off a newer truck (2010+) as they're longer, so you stay in the operating range of the shocks. Mine rides a million times better with shocks off a 2016 FX4, and the best part. they cost m $26 for the set, and had 1500 miles on them. something to consider for a cheap upgrade/replacement
