2019 "Live" suspension mods

Any off road time yet?

Given how terrible they were for the 17/18s, my guess is the person that got them won't be offroading, or will be taking them off shortly.

Rumors are that they had a redesign.

Our Website and Instagram pages are still under development. Our previous experience with Ford Performance has thus far enabled opportunities without a sophisticated internet presence.

With that said this will be changing in the coming weeks.

welcome to the party!

I'd love to see a couple things:

1. Piggyback shock tuner for the active valve factory shocks.

2. Aftermarket shock controller unit for active valve shocks, and race quality coilovers and bypasses that utilize it.

I'd love to chat with y'all about what you might be developing to understand what sort of considerations I should build into a piece of software that I'm currently working on for desert racers. (hobby project. my day job is working for a Silicon valley b2b tech hardware manufacturer.)

Can you send me pricing on the different orange options?

So do the orange RPG collars come with the slots in the bottom of them for the plastic sensor wire holders to snap into like the stock collars have? If not, what are people doing with the sensor wires? Just letting them float or?

In case you guys hadn't heard through other means, I talked to one of the Fox engineers directly a few days ago and he told me the Race Kit for the live valve trucks is in development right now and would be out around mid-2019. So like the 3.0 Race Kit for the 17-18, but with built in live valve integration. That was my deciding factor to buy a 2019 instead of a 2018.

FYI in case anyone with a 2019 is looking at UCAs, there is a little sensor that mounts onto the factory UCA that tells the live valve stuff where in the travel you are. Found out the hard way when I went to install Icon UCAs today. There are no provisions to mount the sensor on any of the UCAs I've seen. I'm not sure what kind of side effects you would get if you just left the sensors unplugged. I believe these are the sensors that detect if you're at full droop so that the truck can stiffen the shocks.

Upon further research it looks like Camburg actually updated their billet UCAs for the 2019s, there’s some more info in the product description:

So if you want UCAs without interfering with the live valve system, Camburg is the only option right now.


Edited to add: sent back my Icon UCAs and got the Camburgs. Going to install this week. Already installed the Eibach coils.
