Fox vs boss or bilstein??

Im currently running original leaf springs w/ 1.5" aal and HD Bilsteins.
I dont plan on going any higher than 1.5" in rear.

Ill replace the old leak pack with either dakars OR progressive aal from toytech when i do my upgrade. I havent decided yet. -Please advise-

What do you guys thing about running King coilovers up front and Fox 2.0s in the rear? I assume they would work well together, i just cant justify a $750 price tag for rear shocks, especially when i can get a pair of Fox reservoir rears for $500 pair.

 

Fox shocks are awesome, I'd get the dsc option if available. Shock oil heats up under heavy use so that's why the reservoirs, to provide more oil and hopefully keep the fluid cooler so it doesn't breakdown. I doubt you need reservoirs if your running mostly fire roads and the like as the oil won't get very heated.

 

As far as rear shocks go its a waste to spend so much money to put them in the factory location. Travel will be quite limited. If you your not looking to relocate shocks and run atleast a 10" travel shock then its just aswell to go with a cheaper option. Non rr fox 2.0s is the most id put in factory mounts.

This is more or less my opinion but something to think about.

 

I dont really need additional travel in the rear. Ill likely get King w/ additional droop because im getting racing ucas, so why not.
i want a smooth ride that can chew up any medium to rough terrain i can throw at it, while providing excellent highway handling.
The main road obstacle to overcome is asphalt rippling left by 18 wheeler chicken trucks on my little farm road.
I want a setup that will drive over them smoothly rather than shaking my truck apart.

 

Also, should i go with Total chaos or Camburg for my ucas?
The camburgs are almost $100 less.

 

Nice! What are you running for rear shocks, leafs, etc?

How does "Sway Away" stack up to king, Fox, Icon etc??

 

They were on par imo. I havent really been keeping up but ive heard a few people say to stay away from them since being bought by afe.
