    GEN 1 Quick question factory fox shocks

    Probably the same reason they came from the factory at bottom perch instead of mid perch, cushier ride and most people aren't pushing it hard offroad frequently (I'm just as guilty there heh).

    GEN 1 Quick question factory fox shocks

    Hmm knucklehead here also haha! So it would make sense if the back side of the shock piston is also shock fluid, so fluid passes through from one side to the other as the shock goes through it's travel. But then the only time the IFP moves is if fluid is lost? And the nitrogen charge is there...

    GEN 1 Quick question factory fox shocks

    But...when the fluid flows into the reservoir that the floating piston lives (as the shock compresses the piston displaces fluid somewhere), wouldn't the volume of the nitrogen get smaller, increasing pressure? Maybe I'm envisioning it wrong, from what I remember from high school physics...

    FMI has a bump stop/limit strap combo, not a separate one for Gen1 but don't see why it wouldn't work on Gen1... https://www.foutzmotorsports.com/collections/shocks/limit-strap-kit

    GEN 1 DIY lower balljoints

    I would definitely stick to Motorcraft for the balljoints (my Moogs didn't last long), for the tie rods so far the Moogs have been just as good as Motorcraft...

    Gen 1 Paddle Shifter Kits Now Ready

    Brown wire going to downshift lever was smashed good and grounding to steering wheel. I installed another butt connector there just to be safe: Then made double sure the wires cleared and had slack in them after the plate was in: Honestly on the first go 'round I was more worried that the...

    Got this done today, thanks for building an awesome kit and walkthrough videos @KrautKabbage! Some thoughts for anyone else that does this. The wires are TINY and luckily I didn't have to use any of the extra included wire terminals for the connectors but just be careful with em and don't...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    I've been having occasional weirdness with my RH steering wheel switch for a few months, sometimes instead of increasing volume it would skip to the next track, and then instead of skipping back to that song it would skip ahead even more (not cool bro) so I ordered a new SW-6879 from Rockauto...

    GEN 1 Quick question factory fox shocks

    Makes sense! Given that, it should be the same for these, whether it's the fronts with the Internal Floating Piston or the rear with the external reservoir, the nitrogen charge is separated from the shock fluid by the floating piston and gets compressed as shock fluid flows into the oil side of...

    GEN 1 Quick question factory fox shocks

    Not real sure, I haven't seen anything about it either, I'm no engineer but in my head as the shock goes through it's travel (compressing), the IFP is compressing the nitrogen so it would read a higher pressure at part/full travel...
