    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    Definitely would do it again. Ride is still great. I just put on 295 60 R20 Ridge grapplers on. Front still feels good. Can feel the difference in tires but definitely need matching shocks for the rear. It feels stiff since it doesn’t match the front. Also might add an inch to the rear. Not sure...

    Stock 20" wheels? Wondering about tire size? Look here.

    295 60 R20 Ridge Grapplers. Front is raised 2 3/4”. Might lower the front just a tad yet. Stock rear.

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    So for a review after some more drive time. Love the new ride. Overall the ride feels improved in all driving conditions. Barely feel the road on highway, brick streets feel smoother, washboard roads are more stable, and gravel roads do not feel as harsh. Would definitely buy again. I can feel...

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    Got it all torqued down and put about 50 miles on. I live on dirt roads and initial impression was somewhat of a let down. Yes it felt smoother over the rough parts but I was expecting more. I have washboards on my road just before the stop sign. Normal the truck tries to walk a little to the...

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    The fox are almost 1” shorter overall. I decided I was going to compensate this with a couple rounds of pre-load on the shock. Everything clears nicely. After I dropped the truck I had 2” rake on the passenger side, and 1 3/4” on the driver. I decided to put my leveling kit spacers on the top of...

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    Almost done short of torquing down the control arms. Left them loose so I could lock them down at ride height.

    Excited for victory or failure.

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    Shipping is pushed back a day. I won’t have time to attempt the install until this weekend.

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    If the lift is a front spacer they would probably work, but you will have to play with pre-load and possibly re-valve them to get the ride back that they had without the lift. The lifts are designed off of factory struts and their reaction to putting a spacer on top. Ideal would be buying a...

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    I was checking them out also. They say that they tune the shocks for the kit. Kinda curious on how they tune them, terrain they test on, and what they run for nitrogen pressure. Guess a phone call would give a decent idea. And rear coil spring rates, and height that it will set at. Current...

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    This is what I found on icons website. It lists it as a 19-up kit. And when you scroll to the bottom it breaks down the parts in their kit. Shows 09-Up. But fox website does not list one for the 5th gen. If the fox doesn’t work out I’ll be going the icon route but the fox being the 2.0 smaller...

    I’m good at finding out things the hard way.

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    They do have rears available also. I didn’t order them yet. Saving up for tires first. Then rear shocks and maybe a little spacer in the rear

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    No. They are an adjustable setup. The mopar kit is just a strut that you re-use your factory coil and top hat. These are a complete assembly with threaded adjustment for more or less lift(pre load) and eibach coils. Internally the valving might me the same but I would doubt it. I would assume...

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    I originally found them on suspension connection. They list the shock as 09-20. Also looking at icons website they show the 4th gen fronts fit the 5th as well. I ordered from shock surplus(cheapest place I found) and they were just under $800. They are adjustable and supposed to come set at...

    Ordered front Fox 2.0

    Pulled the trigger on Fox 2.0 for the front of the new ride. Currently running the 2” motofab leveling kit. I don’t mind it highway driving but I live on dirt roads and this winter has not been kind to them. The motofab stiffened up the ride more than I liked. If I didn’t live on dirt I would...

    295 60 R20 is what I’m leaning towards. Will be an all terrain but haven’t settled on one yet.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Had my RAM emblem vinyl wrapped. Thinking about doing the grill slats eventually. My local guy didn’t have the template for the new ones so he had me order them.

    20% to match the rear. Also did the glare strip.
