Fox leveling kit

[oldstyle17]

I tried searching and couldn’t find anything, but I was curious what everyone’s thoughts were on he fox coilover leveling shocks? I have a lifted 1500 that I had 5100’s on and then went to the Fox coilovers and loved the ride difference but Im getting a new ram and was thinking of just leveling it and using the Fox coilover leveling kit?

how would you compare the highway ride fox vs 5100s . On my Jeeps and trucks I have always thought the Bilstein ride favored the slightly stiffer side and tried them on many . Common description of the 5100s on a Wrangler is you not only can feel a dime if you run over it slowly you can tell if it was heads or tails..... Slow events the 5100s seem stiff at larger events they seem ok .

Couple buddies have raptors so they have fox. I would say that you'd prolly be happiest spending a lil extra for the fox.

Spend the extra money on the Fox. The Bilstein 5100 is one of the cheapest ways to lift a ram. They just replace the shock it self, and compress the stock spring. The Fox is a new everything! Shock, spring, it's lightweight. Plus its rebuildable.

Being our truck all weigh different weight and Ram uses a number of different springs depending on many components , cab size , bed size, 6cyl or 8 ,loaded or Laramie etc .... Look up a pair of rear shocks on a MOPAR site and see how many different shocks they use on these trucks. Ya need the VIN number to replace the OEs with OEs at some sites . Probably why I got 2.25" lift on my reg cab short bed with Rancho Quick lifts. My buddy got less than 2" on his crew cab with those same quick lifts. that makes me a little leary of the one spring and shock fits all fox or not .
