    @juan1028 what kind of lift did the 2.0 give you in the front? And what size tires can you clear?

    Yes , there is no rubbing at all. The larger tire size makes a bouncing ride.

    To get really good quality out of fox you need to spend big buck$$$. I would’ve rolled with the Billys, but decided to go beyond and get ADS because buy once cry once.

    If I had to buy Bilsteins it would be the 8112’s due to their amazing dampening control and jounce cutoff. I wouldn’t buy Fox unless I was spending $5k plus

    The bilstein 6112 as well as the 5160's can be rebuilt you just have to send them back to bilstein. With a work order request. Additionally you can get them tuned and revalved if you really want but at that point I'd go with a different shock all together.
