Fox 2.0 or Bilstein 6112 front only

Damn this is a popular thread!

 

They include that in the entire install. Doubt they itemize it. Shops will charge you to assemble the coil no one does work for free. It will just be included in the bill in their hourly rate. It will be assembled for you though if you just outright pay for the install.

 

What are good recommendations on a UCA replacement? Or do I really need to do that? Just want to make sure.

 

They didn’t include it. I was going to pay the same exact price for another lift I was going to get. That’s the price they charge. If your in so cal check out @NEXGEN OFFROAD Dez has the best deals and customer service. Kings installed for 2700 all the way around. Good luck finding a deal like that.

Almost went that route, but didn’t want to deal with rebuilding.

 

$2700? Now that's rich. RICH I SAY!!!

 

2wd sport here . Love the overkill.

 

I agree! But a good deal non the less. That’s

 

I just got my 6112s used with less than 4,000 miles all on road for $380 all assembled so I'll have to update as how much I like them. They seem to be the best compromise of not jumping to an extremely expensive shock from fox/kings while being way better than the 5100. Going to get 5160s soon. And don't let anyone talk trash on your 2wd anyone who says that it spending too much time on their computer to be doing trails anyway. Just have some fun mate!

 

Not trash talking the 2wd. It's just facts that you're already EXTREMELY limited in what trails you can do with 2wd. If wheeling is a major factor for this lift I would keep it simple and as cheap as possible because lets be honest, you can put the most advanced expensive suspension on a 2wd and it will still be a 2wd. Or you can just listen to ol' Cal from Orange County Ca

 

lol I'm not saying you can do any rock crawling or any trail with the word "hell" in the name with 2wd, I'm just saying if he wants to go out and hit some kind of trail and have confidence he should get something nice. I'm sure out in Denver you got serious obstacles and such but down here all we have to avoid is high taxes and gas prices and most of the time 2wd is fine for the occasional trail or whatever. You drive a manual tho so i respect you my man haha

 

The only obstacles in the city of Denver is tight jeaned man bun transplants here for weed. It's the Rockies where the real fun obstacles are. I completely agree though with the OP getting a decent suspension setup even if its just 2wd. I just am reiterating the fact that he doesn't need a 2.5" shock, reservoirs, and an exorbitant suspension system to kick ass and have fun in his 2wd. But it is all up to the owner and what they decide.

 

Agreed. If I see trails I can't do, I won't do them because A) there is an experience level that I may not have, B) I don't want to jeopardize my truck/equipment, C) I'll find another way or just go somewhere else or go home. I'm not afraid to say no and understand the limitations of my vehicle. I got a 2WD because living in So Cal it was hard to justify going to a 4WD with the type of mainly road driving I do, so I'm seeing this as a fair compromise for myself.

 

Rock crawling isn't my thing to be honest, some pain in the ass trails I can deal with. a beat up wash or two, but that's kind of my limits.

 

Just went Fox 2.0 front - Fox 2.0 with Reservoirs in the rear - and a Headstrong Add A Leaf rear. Went 9 turns up driver side on the front could and 6 turns on the coils passenger to account for the ‘lean’. Netted 2” lift all the way around on my 2018 sport. Ride is fantastic.

 

hahaha I agree 100% keep it simple, maybe long travel one day when my bank account beefs up though

 

Yeah.

 

Looks good!

 

Wow, that's nice man. So can I ask why no fox with reservoirs in the front? I'm just curious. Also, how big are your wheels/tires and it looks like you removed your front air dam and did you have to cut into the frame to remove any rubbing?

 

I’m running a similar setup.removed from dam, Accept I have the reservoirs in front and rear. Running 285/70/17’s and no rubbing. But will be getting a cmc shortly because I know once I hit any trails it will rub

 

Can I ask how much the fox 2.0 setup was. Also, did you have to change the UCA?
