lol true story

It really is, I’ve been finding this in my investigation. Have a LC 100 and found most posts are mentioning looks. Wth

Why couldnt you say “ it will shock the world” .. it was right there

You are correct on the definition of “adjust on the fly” but I think she just meant you don’t have to remove parts or need special tools. My MTB with Fox shocks has the same features, takes only seconds to adjust but I don’t do it while riding.

its definitely a good idea to get an alignment done after a suspension change, even if you think the ride height is going to be the same

The low speed compression settings make a noticeable difference in body roll. Its harder to tell with the HSC unless you're hitting the terrain hard consistently, and vary your vehicle's loadout considerably from outting to outting

As long as it has a certificate showing that it has been properly calibrated, that’s all that matters. I personally have Snap-on digital torque wrenches that I have calibrated once in a while to maintain proper torque measurement. But they’re not $30 like the part stores sell. Their $500+ but I use them mostly for engine repairs / rebuilds.

I have gearwrench

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qc6mi6R9u6veoKs.html Donut Media literally just does a comparison on torque wrenches with some weird form of entertainment. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@Sw20boosted this +1. also don't use them as a breaker bar, you can mess them up.

I don’t in general don’t buy Snap-on, but all three of my torque wrenches are Snap-on digitals. The other Snap-on product I buy are flush cuts. Amazingly HF torque wrenches are pretty good.

They told me the opposite of what they said in their breakdown video when I called to order my new shocks. Add that to their shitty install of my original rear shocks which is why I needed new shocks in the first place and I'm not too happy with them.

fox wiper seals and shafts are amongst the best in the industry(fox actually has the hardest shafts of any manufacturer), and even pro racers dont run boots because dirt and rocks get caught inside, sit there, and wear on the shaft

They do need guards, especially if you go fast in the sand wash, the shafts are good but still get pitted. Anyone who has worked on any raptor shocks or actual race cars knows this

Hi Joseph. I’m actually an engineer at Fox (although granted I’m on OEM production side of things) and wanted to answer your question and give a little bit of shock insight. Adjusting the pre-load on the spring (especially the very little amount that these shocks are set up with) has next to zero affect in the shock’s performance. The spring has a constant spring rate (I.e. 500 lbs/in) that doesn’t change with how much pre-load is put into it. The downside of pre-load is that if there is too much, you can get what is called spring bind which is when the coils start hitting each other at full compression. But with how little these springs are adjusted, you’ll never have to worry about that. Also, adding a spacer above the shock is by far the worst way to gain height or the account for lean since it messes with the motion ratios that the suspension is designed to have. Basically, by adding a spacer above the coilovers it causes the shock to bottom out before the suspension wants to, and the suspension tops out before the shock wants to.

@@joeyrainbolt0622 thank you, Joseph! This helps me a lot on setting my rig up!

How much does it cost to get it tuned by them? Is shipping back and forth extra?

@@joyoptimal6286 I got the shocks from them. Both front and rear with their u bolt flip kit. Total coast was $4,996.37

Yes, since the shocks are the same width

She didn't buy it.

we've got these in stock right now - $2299

No it’s a bearing not a bushing, makes no difference
