@Gen1TillDeath I tried working with fox directly since the shocks are brand and are covered under the 1yr warranty. They went on and on about random stuff n about his gladiator does the same thing and blah blah then he realized that I wasn't giving up . Then he told me there was a batch of bad...
@Gen1TillDeath that's what I'm saying ! Maybe that's why they're always on sale ? I bought mine from stage 3 motorsports for 2400.
I called fox and same as others ,said they never heard of this issue and he's been there for 10yrs blah blah . But yeah I'm glad Cody got it dialed in.now I can...
@TomDirt
Yes happy ending 100% Resolved the issue . I think this is why no one had the fix . No one went to the extent of getting them re valved because the shocks are brand new. You would expect no issues out the box ,just wouldn't cross someone's mind . Definitely didn't cross my mind.since...
Well everyone , I found the solution to the clunk. I did everything, To rebuilding the front end to adjusting the rack . I swapped shocks around .kings no clunk , stock 2.5 with geiser springs . No clunk even a blown set of 2.5s with very bad bushings and no clunk . So I narrowed it down the...
Lol uhhh nvm ,if can't say what part. I'm like 5hrs away from Denver .... But I don't know "crowded part of Colorado "is. Can be Boulder . Colorado springs . Durango , capital hill etc.... Best of luck on the sale .
I have the same issue with my gen 1 2014. Did the fox 3.0 front non DSC and back bypass . Fronts have the same issue that your having. I've searched and searched and came up with nothing . Just got so frustrated and started to throw parts at. Figured I have 150k and oem parts still,I Replaced...
If you still have the UCAs. I'll take them . Just give me the shipping quote to 87144 if your willing to ship them . I've bought downhill bikes from Canada . And shipping is only about 120$ usd . So I don't think two UCA will be that much .but send me a pm .
@BSRKNU-big scotty out of curiosity,do you get any clunking or sounds like as if something is loose when you go over speed bumps or un even pavement with those icons ?
I've never knew it was wear item ? I've always known Ford just designed them because they're to lazy and didn't want to redesign the shock tower from . Until they came out with gen 2 .
I had slight play on the driver side tie rod . But was coming from the rack it's self. I replaced the tie rods inner and outer and did a shake down after and still had the play on the driver side and then narrowed it down to the gear box. There's a nylon bushing in the system that gets worn...
If your talking about the spacer/mount x2. One goes on top of the shock tower and the other goes under then No those mounts never get swapped out unless there cracked or obviously broken .
I bought a set of new Fox 3.0(non DSC) for my gen 1 .Front and rear . Same issue . Clunk from the front end . The Rear clicks, that's a given for an bypass /normal but the front almost sounds as if the spring is dancing around or something is loose while driving Over pot holes and man hole...
I'm gonna have to do the GoPro . Lol I've taken the front end apart so many times already . And triple checked everything . Just leads back to the shocks. Just cant find any play when I do a shake down .
It's a clunk as if there's not enough pre load . Called fox they said theres pre load ...
@emerald_nomad - RLTW
When you say swapped for svc goodies , do you mean tie rods , UCA and LCA ?
I've had the clunk with the stock shocks there for that's what lead to replacing the shocks but with solid bushings it just intensified . That's why I started to replace all the worn parts .
I...
@TomDirt according to Fox you don't run those shims ? . And I didn't because the hardware that came with the shocks didn't allow you run them if you wanted to, unless you buy longer bolts . It's just driving me crazy because that clank is coming from both sides . Maybe I'll pull them out this...
Looking for some insight on these dam shocks . Came across many threads and no one seems to have a answer .
Installed some fox 3.0 on my gen 1 . Have the clunk/metallic sound as if something is loose in the front end . At any speed going over cracks/expansion joints . Speed bumps or anything...
