Fox 2.5 for 6" lift, I got them with the BDS kit, no DSC. They ride great, nice and smooth. Great quality parts. The 2" fox shock ride great also. These went in with the lift so it's hard to say what was lift and what was coilovers. Install was easy. I do wish I had bought the dsc version. They have been on the truck for 16k miles.

Nice...those are what I'm going to go with...what are you running in the rear...thinking about the dsc but may not go that route, I really only drive on the street with little off road

One thing to keep in mind with the nicer coilovers...rebuild timeframes.

they do need to be sent in more frequent than your average shocks if you want them performing like they do when you first get them.

not sure on the wait times from each respective company but maybe keep a real cheap strut/spacer (of same length as your coilovers) to install as temps while you have to send out the coilovers?

otherwise you’re truck will be on the lift or jack stands during maintenance time for the shocks. Just something to think about.

Great info as I never even thought about that, now I'll be sure to keep what's on my truck now to be able to swap when that time comes for a rebuild...
