Fox Factory Race Series 2.5 Coilovers

Looks like Poly Performance has the fox 2.5’s listed for sale. $2100 for the front set and $1350 for the rear set with dsc adjusters.


 
I just purchased the FOX-883-06-166 from Poly Performance and will be installing them next week. on my rebel ecodiesel.

What control arm are you going with? I bought the ones from Fabtech for their 3" lift to swap out my Mopar ones. I ended up returning them though since I might get rid of the truck sooner rather than later.

FYI. CARID had the best prices on the control arms. Fast shipping too.
 
I am looking at the Fox 2.0 Coil Over front shocks to add to my BDS 4" lift with the rear Fox Shock upgrade. Talked to Fox directly today and they gave me a P/N of 985-02-136. I wish I could find some good reviews from Ram folks that have added them to see if I should get them for $411 vs the Mopar Fox shocks that come in the 2" lift for $430 for just the shock.

I ended up trying out the roughy country 3-3.5 control arm.

That part number is for a Fox 2.0 coilover for a 4 inch lift???
 
I talked to BDS today and they did NOT recommend the Fox Coilovers and said that it would be stiffer than my factory ride that i am trying to keep. In a coupl monts Fox is coming out with a replacement shock for the front that will use the factory spring and retainer similar to the mopar kit and will be a better option priced around $285. That is better than the $430 for the mopar shock. I will just install the BDS 4" kit and wait on the front shocks if I don't like them or want to go to the Fox shock.

Ok that makes sense, awesome! Thank you! I’m going to wait til they come out with that new shock then, that sounds like a good option!

Do you know what the estimated front lift over factory, for this fox kit? It is 2-3", correct. So if you have the rebel you're hoping for 2" inches.

Basically because 2in lift are like .75 I've seen, but don't quote me on this. Because once you remove the factory coil-over you took the rebels complete front lift out of the picture.
 
We I just got my coilovers from PolyPerformance, now I’m waiting for my UCA arm to come before I install. I’m really looking forward to this experience being like my ZR2 I traded in.596F4B04-0053-49CC-A117-3C88998A2C4C.jpegB9FB7718-1604-4DBB-9C69-2CAC8D24B9E9.jpeg

How long did they take to get once you ordered them? Did you get the rears also?

It took me a week to receive them, but I purchased the last one on the rack I was told. To answer your question about the rears, that’s a no. I’m currently going to ride with the front for now till I get a better idea of what I need in the rear.

Do they come set and tuned for 3" of lift or do you crank the preload to lift the additional inch?
They come with the 2in setting putting me at 39in compared to the stock 38in.
