Help trd pro fox suspension

anyone kno what bushings i can use
to replace the lower bushing on my pro suspension

 

maybe it's just the photo but that looks like overmold, not a tear. Anyways, they look non-serviceable.

 

Almost looks like they were torqued down when hanging in the air being installed and then lowered causing the bushings to twist and rear after a while.

Have you tried the dealership?

 

yea they want to sell me new ones
even tho i have the part number for it frm
fox and fox wants to rebuild them for 126 plus parts plus shipping

 

oh dang, if its under warranty have them replace it for free and make them give you the old one to get rebuilt as a spare on the side. If they are making you pay for it, force them to have it rebuilt.

 

it’s over warranty already but been having issues with the front driver side and it’s the one that’s messed up but there saying it’s cuz of all the off roading i come in the truck

 

TMI dude, TMI

 

yea it is tmi but they ain’t fixing them so it really dnt matter now

 

By chance have you inquired about replacing the shocks at the dealership. I have 50k and like the ride and capability of the stock fox shocks. I just haven’t heard of the price to replace.

 

well since i’m over 60k i’m at 67989k
there is no more warranty on them anymore
they quoted me just under $2300 to replace the fox shocks for new ones

 

What's the PN, I might be able to source it.

BUT you have high miles for rebuildable shocks and should have them serviced. Shocks do not last forever and the oil is used up by the time you hit 40K usually.

 

part number is 014-11-036
but can’t seem to find it anywhere and toyota is no help even tho fox said they would be

yea tru but i’m just putting my truck back to stock to trade it in possibly

 

My best guess, but no promises.... 90903-89012

 

$5 part and most certainly replaceable. Take the metal part out, pop out the bushing, put soapy water on the new one, pop it in and put the metal spacer back in.

 

i will give that part number a try it’s under $10 bucks so it won’t hurt to try thanks @Jowett

 

Hey there, I wanted to follow up on this. Having a slight clicking noise also coming from the driver side as well on mine. I'm at 54K an offroad pretty hard too. The faster and harder the front suspension hits the noise is more noticeable. I havent taken mine off yet but looking at it from the top I can see some of the bushing slightly distorted so when I finally remove it I speculate it will look a lot like yours. Did you try any of the bushing suggested here? If so any luck? Thanks.

 

Use a ball joint press to take out the bushing. Done it many times to other shocks

 

Thanks @ahkouchi. I can replace it no problem, my dilema is making sure I’m buying the correct bushing.

 

Ya man I wish I could help u find it. Just keep bugging fox maybe? But as others said, getting a rebuildable shock rebuilt isn't a bad idea at your mileage especially if you may or may not have off roaded them

 

Odds are bushing is shot. Had the same problem on 5100s. The rubber just goes after a while. Depending on the shock u could replace them or just get new shocks. If you're stock, 5100 is a good cost effective shock. I switched to elka and they don't have a lower bushing, its just a solid tube to mount. No more clicking noise
