Had my son run bolt out while I held shock so doesnt drop. Put in top bolt on 3.0 but didnt tighten, Put the bottle jack on to get...

    Gen 2 OE rear shocks on gen 1

    Just got off the phone with Fox to see if I can get some free or inexpensive stickers for the rear opposed shock instead of heating them up to transfer sides. Everything was going fine and I was about to get a price until I told the rep what it was for. Then I got transferred to another guy who...

    Anyone have any experience with evil offroad/manufacturing weld in limit strap kit made for the gen 1? I ordered a set. By pics and what rep told me looks to be a no brainer measurements already taken so you cant mess anything up and weld in piece on upper mount is form fitted to a specific...

    Gen 2 OE rear shocks on gen 1

    For the record I dont think there is a single person on this thread even the guys who were willing to go full mad max and have a death duel in the desert over these shocks earlier in the thread want or are looking to be out of spec on they're trucks. If Fox/king or icon turned around and said we...

    Gen 2 OE rear shocks on gen 1

    I dunno based on this video either A the shaft has to be shortened somehow, maybe aftermarket company or fox themselves can help out by fabricating a shorter shaft or the body has to be shortened which some extremely talented and at the same time crazy guy did by cutting down the shock body to...

    Gen 2 OE rear shocks on gen 1

    I saw on craigslist someone was selling gen 2 fronts that had a machine shop cut lower spring perches on the shock body. Is this a solution to limiting straps and CV destruction? It doesnt seem that simple to me. If it were why is he selling them? Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk

    Your probably right. I need them, left front stocker is leaking at 54k. However I thought if I wait one more year and see where this live valve stuff goes and in mean time get a replacement stocker (not like I cant find one of those). According to the bicycle community they are all about live...

    With the pending transfer from mechanical shocks to electronic assist I'm curious once the 2019 upgrade 3.0 units go into full swing next year will the 3.0 shocks for my Gen 1 raptor come down in price and then further price drop for black friday? Stage 3 motorsports has a pretty decent deal...

    This has been a very entertaining thread! So much so I feel I must join in on this and bring this thread back from the dead. First off being a Gen 1 13 terrain screw owner I tip my hat to you Gen 2 owners. The truck is better in every way except sound of course. Being a road course and drag...
