    I have a set of Fox 2.5 coil overs. My understanding is they are going to be too stiff a ride for my liking....I was really after a set of Bilsteins. Would be interested in possible trades....18D7603D-FC51-4460-8DF3-5446C5D3B728.jpg

    Have the TRD Baja front suspension, tuned Bilstein 6112's and 650lbs Eibach springs. They are digressive valving so a softer ride

    Also how many miles and any rebuilds?

    Have had a lot of pms....I have sent my number to several people. If interested you can call me. Also, forgot to mention that I have the rear shocks (fox rears with reservoirs) that go with these....

    Okay. An update. I am also going to post a new thread for asking about the military spec Fox shocks...
    Had a trade worked out...sent my shocks to Fox to have them rebuild before doing th trade. They had said it would be about $130 per shock for fronts and $85 for rear. After getting them over a month ago they finally responded and said it would be $730. So we are not trading.
    Reason: Turns out my shocks are for a Tacoma but we’re built to “military “ specs....they cost more to get the rebuild done. Also one rear needs the shaft replaced and two of the top joints are needed to be replaced on fronts...Fox is telling me that they are still over $2700 shocks new so it is well worth doing. And the springs on the fronts are the correct ones for a Tacoma at 600lbs....
    As I may have mentioned before, my truck NEVER leaves the highway, I am simply after a three inch or so and a more firm ride...
    So now I am trying to decide whether to rebuild and use myself
    Or
    It may be overkill for someone who doesn’t off-road, so still try to trade

    Any advice appreciated.

    No. I am assuming you have to tell them the type of ride you want and they tune and valve them to try to match that.

    I might be interested in buying them outright or trading my fox 2.0 IFPs if your interested. They’re pretty soft and I’m just an hour or 2 from the OBX
