Lately I’ve been putting the fox 2.0s on my vehicles and could have been happier. Everything from my Jeep jk to my Silverado and suburban. They cost more but I personally think they are worth it.

Shocks are easy to remove / replace as is the stabilizer.  Shouldn't take more than an hour ( soak the nuts /bolts with PB Blaster prior )  with regular hand tools . Bilstien 5100s are nice  have them on my F350 an had them on my TJ . Agree with 257wbymagkiller , swapped out the 5100s on my TJ for the Fox 2.0 with a custom tune , and they are far superior,  although quite a bit more .
Anyone that thinks a Glock is better than a 1911 paints his toenails.

Thanks.  Mostly it's a clean dry warm place to work that's the hold up.  I may wait it out until spring.

Probably don't need or want adjustable nor the extra expense over the bilsteins.  It would be like polishing a turd, for the age, even though it is a great, solid, clean truck.

What don’t you like about the fox shocks?

The quality as soon as you pull them out of the box is noticeably better than shocks I’ve had in the past as well as the performance on and off the road. They seem to work like a shock should as far as making a difference in ride. In the past I’ve put shocks on and noticed no difference.
