    Both E load or both SL load rated? Comparing an E load tire to SL load tires is an apples and orange comparison.

    Interesting. I raced mtn bikes and rode Fox shocks and forks, and the company stood behind those products. If you buy a TRD Pro, the shocks are warranted for 3/36000 or more if you get the extended warranty.

    Are TRD Pro Fox shocks directly swappable with a TRD OR OEM Bilsteins without having to change anything else?

    Was under the impression fox pro suspension wasnt rebuildable. Thats why i passed it up. Good for 30-50k miles and then junk

    They are easily swappable and you don't need to add anything (AAL, block, etc). I know this from personal experience, I swapped out my OEM Bilsteins and replaced it with OEM Pro Fox shocks.

    That's probably why. They have about 1/3 of the market share with mountain bikes. Full range too from top of the line stuff to crap.

    They are rebuildable just like the shocks on the Raptors I have been told by Fox.

    Rebuild coil springs? Rebuilding leaf spring is a waste of time, but I’ve never heard of anyone rebuilding a coil spring.

    Well, if it's just 30,000 miles it gets replaced. Longer with extended warranty.

    I did the same with the older Bilstein Baja suspension on my last TRD OR.

    What's the coin on this? Where do you get em?

    If the non-TRD 2.5s are adjustable and (I assume) similar cost wouldn't that be a smarter choice?

    So you want to know if you can change the spring in the Pro suspension? Yes you can, you can in any of the setups mentioned in this thread.

    I think the non-TRD 2.5s lack the internal bypass, so harsher ride.
