Which Raptor? (Year and SCAB or Crew)

How many miles?

Is this only off road?

Do you see any oil or mud around the shock shaft in the rear where it goes in the shock body or at the rod end? In the front it is very hard to see but you can use a screw driver and go between the spring coils and lift up the shock jounce bumper on the shaft and see if you see any oil leakage.

What is Tie Shocks?

I have seen a few SCAB that have lost the nitrogen inside the shock because of oil leaking out of the shaft. If this is the case the shock needs to be replaced under warranty. YES, they will replace it or ask them to please replace both of them. If for some reason the factory won't cover the replacement shock they can be rebuilt. You can send them into FOX in Santee CA and they require 3 weeks or send me a PM and I can tell you what I can do for you. A new shock is over $750each and to rebuild one you're looking at around $150 - $200 depending on parts and what's wrong of course.
