They sound pretty promising thus far! I'll be keeping tabs on this for down the road when I hopefully refresh my setup.

Ordered Fox 2.5 with piggyback RES for the back, FOX-883-24-024, and i will have Accutune do the valving. Kings are either 28, or 30" extended, damn it. oh well only thing that won't match is the color
They're 29.39" extended, 18.25 compressed, 11" of travel.

Just stumbled across this thread and wanted to say good work on the truck. Looks great! Good to see a fellow 2014 Express owner out there with similar tastes. Love all the choices you've made and I can say that you have got me questioning my suspension set up and will likely look to you for some motivation.

My pleasure, bud
Glad to be able to help the community.

2" longer. Kings are 27.25/17.5 , Fox are 29.3/18.25, i'll be running the same 1" bumpstop i have now so uptravel will be same, 2" more downtravel.
These are the Fox 2.5 shocks for the previous gen ram 2500 (2009 Dodge RAM 2500 for example), but i'll have them valved and tuned per the same specs i have now in my current Kings.

It'll take at least 6 weeks for them to be ready. after installing them i'll have a fresh set of King 2.5 with RES ready to rumble for Sale

I'll also be listing 1 month old FO rear control arms, brand new Mevotech rear control arms and used Icon 1.5" coil springs + used 1" Daystar spacers in our For Sale section soon.

Home run of a choice! My buddy has 285 70 17s and loves them. He hasn't rotated them since I installed them last year and swears they're still quiet. Part of me might hold onto my stock 20s and use them as winter wheels, than I can run some ignorant tires and not worry since they'll only be on for 1/2 the year.

Still sitting at 42" with the Clayton springs. The SLF-140's had lost about 1/2" by now so these things are fairly heavy duty.

they'll be adjustable, and white...

Doing some powdercoated APOC Industries adjustable rear control arms.


Chose the coating color today. Be a week or so.

Post some pics when you get them. Glad to see the market is expanding with a plethora of options.

I sure will, wanted to try someone different and have heard great stuff about them.

And after 1 week they haven't lost any height at all. Still 42" in the back by now the SLF-140's had lost 1.5"
