    Took the boots off the rear ones, Ha! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Speaking from experience, YES! I replaced my Ranchos with 5100’s after a few thousand miles and immediately noticed a much more controlled ride. I gave my Ranchos to my yard guy which I religiously do every time I buy a truck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I’m aware of that and yet rather have someone do it that is very familiar with rather then take a chance on a spring popping and ripping your face off. It’s also about warranty work as well. If it’s not done right the first time it’ll eventually be taken care of by the shop that sold it and installed them from the get go. Personally, I don’t rent anything that I can pay a professional to do. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The back are shocks, not struts Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It is NOT an easy process, pulling off your stock coil is very dangerous and DO NOT RECOMMEND DIY unless you have the proper equipment! Now, the rear are easy as brushing your teeth. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    You should check with your local 4wheelparts (if you have one nearby) and see if they’re running a special on all four shocks with free installation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    4wheelparts has awesome deals. Highly recommend having a professional do your front struts/springs as alignment is 100% necessary. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Do you have the kit # for it? I’d love to have it done to my SLT. That looks awesome Sent from above

    Beautiful, makes me miss my DMax, looks like you deleted all the fixings on the panels leaving the grocery cart protection only Sent from above

    Wouldn’t worry about it, you’ve noticed nothing yet which means you’ll be fine. My 18 6.2 is awesome, awesome enough that I’m spending thousands and thousands in mods that “will not” fit on a 19 or 20...don’t think [emoji848] point is, think positive and you’ll have good things happen with your truck. I love that little clunk I get sometimes, puts a smile on my face every time Another way of looking at it, by the time you’ve paid off your truck they’ll have finally gotten all the kinks out of the new ones and then you’ll start over, or just keep your beastly machine [emoji6] Sent from above

    No, my local shop that I work with ordered through Fox direct rep which apparently got the full info on my driving habits and what I expect out of them, able to jump off freeway ramps, stuff like that [emoji6]. I don’t slow for speed bumps. I was going to do the 2.5 in rear as well but thought it would be a bit to stiff, I’ll give it a try and will switch to the 2.5 if I need to. Fabtech uniball came highly recommended to me from a close friend in the off-road business. Sent from above

    Just ordered new Fox 2.5’s front coilovers and 2.0’s rear as well as new Fabtech upper control arms. Now, I have to wait 4-6 weeks for arrival, haha, nuts! Sent from above

    Just ordered my new Fox 2.5 front and rear along with my new Fabtech UCA’s for a much more improved ride quality. The Bilsteins worked much better than the stock for everyday driving (highway) but have noticed ride quality suffering a bit since I put on the heavier Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Going over grocery store speed bumps felt like the shocks were struggling to keep from bottoming out making me slowdown considerably. Fox Shocks allow me to deal with surprises like speed bumps and the new UCA’s will allow more play in the suspension and not in cabin lol. Now the waiting game, have to wait 4-6 weeks for my new custom tuned Fox Shocks to come in. Sent from above

    Aftermarket is the way to go especially with milled fins and large magnets. Sent from above

    Absolutely not, pop it off, drain, spray with cleaner, throw in your “new” cover and refill with Amsoil severe gear. I switched diff covers to a G2 and extremely easy to service now. Sent from above

    Btw, the Nitto Ridge Grapplers are excellent tires, almost no weight added to them, very easily balanced. Sent from above

    IMHO, Best setup without cutting into anything. 20X9, +1 offset Sent from above

    Had the BFG KO2’s and switched them out a day later due to vibrations at high speeds which apparently the new KO2’s have been known to have. Nitto Ridge Grapplers are heavy tires, rougher riding than OEM P rated for sure but do have a smooth ride to them on a nice road as well. Excellent traction in dirt, sand, grass, dry roads and rain. I’m running mine at 32psi. Absolutely ZERO regrets! Sent from above
