Anyone running Fox 2.0 performance series?

New to tacomaworld and bought an 09 tacoma with fox shox on it and i know nothing about them. Just wondering if anyone else is using these and I have some questions about them.

 

read into this, might help

the only thing is mine arent coilovers and i cant seem to find anything about them. oh well thanks for the help

 

Are you referring to the rear shocks or the fronts?

 

I'm pretty sure both. Like I said I'm new to tacomaworld and a new Tacoma owner so I know nothing about trucks. So I'm trying to figure out what I have. They both say performance series on them.

 

Can you take a picture of it?

 

Hmmm it has fox shocks already on it? are they on the front or back? I was going to use them for both but went a different route, they are definitely one of the higher rated shocks out there. With a 2.0 i think you would be fine unless you plan on doing some desert racing and working them pretty hard constantly. What other questions did you have about them?

BTW welcome to TW

Here is what the fronts might look like, with or without the reservoir




Here is a picture of what the rear 2.0s might look like.

 

my front looks nothing like that there is no resovoir and they are not coilovers. and i will get some pictures of them tomorrow. i appreciate the help

rear

 

wow, im clueless on these. I hope someone else can chim in that might know something. Typically fox shocks are great.... how is the ride with these?

 

i guess my question is whether or not i would need to replace my suspension if i were to lift my truck 3" and if these shocks are adjustable?

woody6047 the truck rides real smooth. my buddy has the trd off road with stock suspension and says mine rides much smoother

 

The fronts seem to be adjustable....do you have the spanner wrench? Thats what you'd use to crank them up...if you look at the front you'll see that its threaded

 

your shocks wont lift the rear...leaf springs do that

 

Hmmm, i would contact FOX themselves and send them pictures of the shocks. Try to find serial numbers on them. Maybe they can help you out... so the truck sits at stock height with those shocks? I bet it does ride pretty nice. Those coils also look like they could be 2.5's you might run into some UCA issues with lifting. Id definitely do some research, i havnet seen anything like it.

 

is it as easy as it sounds?

 

what do you guys think about these.....I can't seem to find many posts for anyone on here who has Fox coil overs...I'm thinking about getting these!...any ideas about how well they are....are they like just as good as Icons??

thread jack...

OP, those ARE coilovers. coilovers = coil over the shock, which you have...

and they are adjustable, just turn the spanner nutt on the bottom of the front coils and it will raise or lower your truck. just remember the higher you go the stiffer the ride will get.
