For offroading a stock width Gen 2 raptor (i.e. 13" front suspension travel), what is the best ratio of compression to droop travel on the front, and why?
I have installed Fox Factory Series 3.0s, and with 3/4" of preload (about 1.5" lift), the truck is clunking on extension on potholes and over small jumps, like 3-4" rocks on the road as well as speed bumps on the road. I think this is likely because there is only now about 4.5" of down travel, and about 8.5" of up travel.
I am thinking it would be best to bring it back down to 7" up and 6" down travel.
Can anyone weigh in on this? it is a very time intensive and costly process to play with these settings, so the more info, the better.
I presume this will also be helpful for those considering Geisers and Eibachs.
Thanks in advance
