    you might get lift if they fit but they're technically the same size as factory. the 5100s are almost factory but they're adjustable. the fox size is more than factory. they compress more and extend further so they can run lift without loosing travel. most guys have issues because they put on too heavy of a coil to get that 3inches and they complain about not enough droop and its because the shock is basically drooped out. does that make sense? the foxes will still have travel left in them before they limit out

    Are you talking about the shock body? The 6112 are 60mm which I think is a hair over 2 inches. Think 2.3 inches.

    Yeah it does. I don't ever max out my fronts, i've only once maxed out my rear but that was with stock shocks. I want a smoother ride than what my stock coils give with billies set at 1.75

    I thought you were wanting different coils on it? Or do you already have the coils you want?

    I have no idea other than better valving for slow wheeling since they are progressive while icon is digressive

    The ifp keeps the nitrogen seperated from the shock oil not allowing it to foam and fade the shock. Digressive is the shock starts firm and then softens as speed or compression increases. Progressive is starts out soft and then gets firm as speed and compression increase, there more used for rock crawling.

    Somebody correct me if in wrong.
