    Wow must live somewhere in the Midwest that uses salt 24/7 on the roads. Those could be salvaged if you found replacement springs and I would just send the shocks to Fox to get rebuilt.

    asking Fox or Kings is like asking which beer is best.. You'll get a bunch of opinions but both are very good. I have had both, and Icons. I like my current Kings with the easy adjust on the resi, but I'm sure fox has those too. Good luck!

    I'll take the old ones off your hands, need some to dissect. Wish I was further along with adapting the the Raptor 3.0 units, but that is what these are for.

    None of the Shock/spring combos are going to last long with that kind of rust happening ,no matter it be King,Fox,etc.

    So if those went like that in 3-4 years, your probably going to end up with the same results in a few years if you go aftermarket king or fox. I suggest you up your winter time wash game to prevent that from happening to the new ones.
