Rear shock / brake shields

[TheJoker]

I'm getting ready to replace my rear shocks, and looking at ways to protect my investment. While searching for shock guards, I ran across this video of custom shock / brake guards for an F-150. They look awesome, just don't know how feasible something like this would be on a Raptor. Would they just collect mud and dirt, causing more problems? What are your thoughts?

that's feasible but ugly for desert use only. In your area all the snow and crap would just build up in there. I have a new set of shocks waiting to go on my truck as well, and the only reason I haven't installed them is I'm looking for a way to protect them as well. Subscribed!!

I have a set of newer stock 2.5's and used Outlaw shock guards. I just need to have them powder coated. I thought these one (pictured), were pretty cool. Wish I could figure out how to embed a video, I thought it was supposed to be automatic?

I just want to figure out a way to protect mine without hiding them, after all I bought a raptor to show off! I was thinking of wrapping them in 3m clear vinyl.

TY that helped.

Looks like that guard would hold dirt / mud, and worst of all heat.
All are a combination for poor braking performance.

I would forgo the cover and be sure to clean them well by hosing them off after each off-road trip.

Go with the machine bellows sold by McKenzies off-road in Orange County, CA. I have them on my King Shocks and they work great!!

I wish Outlaw would make more of the shock guards. You can't find them used either

I just bought some outlaw shock guards, used. I got them from a guy in Canada for a decent price. I just want to have them powder coated before I install them.

If you serious about wanting to buy some, why don't you post a WTB thread? It's worth a shot.
