I didn't even know this was a thing, and was fascinated with the complexity of shock tech. This is one of the best informational ones I've seen on shocks. Had to watch parts of it twice. 😎

@jasonkubitz9410 Жыл бұрын

Accutune is hands down one of the best shock tuners I've dealt with for this application. One big reason is they're not about full race. They accommodate all driving habits. I just picked up my Fox FRS 2.5 DSCs for my Ford F250. I live really close to them so it's super convenient. I haven't had a chance to run the shocks yet but I have no doubt they will impress me. I'm used to dirtbike/quad or SxS shock tuning so I know 100% that off the shelf shocks get you out there but tuned shocks make your adventure more enjoyable. Great channel and great videos. Keep up the hard work!

Thanks for the informative video Chloe! You’re becoming an off-road journalist of sorts. I’ve been hesitant of leaving the TRD Pro Fox Shocks on my 4Runner for this very reason - they are tuned specifically for the 4Runner and I wouldn’t want to throw any expensive suspension in without a tune for my driving experience.

Accutune is top notch ! Dealt with Alex and Ryan, great guys who really helped me get my suspension dialed in.

Great video Chloe! So many people have great shocks like this, but never realize how much better they can be after some tuning. Makes me wish I had some big Fox's on my F150 to mess with.

@johns818 Жыл бұрын

Their truck feels smoother because they're running bigger tires. Moving your 50 lb battery from the front of your truck to under the bed next to the gas tank will make the biggest difference. Not only are you removing 50 lb from the front but you're placing it in the rear so the net effect is significant.

What is your mpg? Did it change after the shock tune? How bad was the hit in mileage after all your mods?

@swicked86 Жыл бұрын

Interesting the tunes all sounds backwards, generally I think stiff for higher loads like turning and breaking on asphalt. I would think for faster driving off-road you'd decrease rebound to help keep tires on the ground. Very interesting to think about.

@ShockSurplus Жыл бұрын

shock terminology is definitely confusing at first, low / high speed has to do with shaft speed, not vehicle speed. More rebound means faster rebound (per your example) to keep the tires planted.

@ShockSurplus Жыл бұрын

And rebound tuning is very specific to how fast you're taking bumps. If you're driving under 15mph, then slowing down rebound will feel better for the driver to reduce bucking (after going into a compression event). But a faster driver needs faster rebound to keep the tires planted after a compression event.

For smoother ride on highways and also rough pavement roads would you recommend fox shocks ?

@ShockSurplus Жыл бұрын

Fox is a bit softer over the factory shocks on road and easy trail with rocky chatter, it definitely evens out the harshness. Fox 2.0s make a big difference, the 2.5 option can be softer than the 2.0, but off the shelf (non custom) see a firmer (more controlled) highway ride.

@accutuneoffroad Жыл бұрын

If your budget allows for it, yes some Fox remote reservoir shocks will ride very nice on the terrain you described.

Has anyone had their Trd pro fox shocked tuned? I know they are “trd tuned” already. wonder if there is a big difference going with a tune like this?

@ShockSurplus Жыл бұрын

i dont think any tuner messes with the factory fox's, since tuning internal bypass is already very involved, and there isn't readily available kits (seals and other components) ready

You already spend a lot of money on fully adjustable shocks, why not just use all the adjustments you have to tune the shocks! Unless you are Baja racer, it is so unnecessary to tune them for daily driving!

@Pengowirr Жыл бұрын

This video feels like just advertisement to me.

@ChloeKuo Жыл бұрын

I had the same sentiment prior to getting them tuned (I had honestly thought there would be a minor difference but nothing super noticeable to me), however it was surprisingly a much bigger difference than I expected, even on-road! The DSCs still give you a range of adjustments depending on the terrain/driving, but revalving allows the shocks to perform as well as they were designed, especially if you're like me and have limited up travel because of added accessories

Nice review about the shock tunes by Accutune, for the Fox shocks. … I presume the tune would need to change if you changed the Methods and the tires? 🙃🍷🛻

@accutuneoffroad Жыл бұрын

Wont likely need a revalve from just that. We do however recommend staying away from heavy load range tires like E. Stiff tires like that are hard to tune for.
