Nothing special, but finally got to take my raptor out to the dirt for a little fun around Mojave, CA yesterday checking out some mines. Suspension felt great, other than a bit of a thud I have in the front right coilover, like it's topping out. I'm worried Fox shipped it without enough oil in it or something. All bolts were triple checked, and it's been doing it since install, over 2000 miles of DD and towing duty without any change. Guess I'll have to pull it and take a look one of these days. They still feel great, coming from a pretty well set up Tacoma before this, it's much more compliant with larger hits and doesn't feel like you're really slamming things. Can't wait to get it out there for more and really get used to it.

Also took it on a little rock crawling and tapped the steps a little, thankfully appears there was no damage.

I had a similar noise once when I accidentally installed the coil mount wedge incorrect. The spring was coming into contact with the shock.

I've never heard of it....? I'm not sure. Is it a place or an event? I stopped through Mojave just for a gas top up on the way out, didnt stop to look around.
