Nice pics.
Would it be too much to inquire as to the actual performance improvements (numbers, not marketing narrative) over the Fox Racing Shocks that come on the Raptors from the factory?

Tell us what you're doing, and how it changes the Raptor.

Obviously, you're changing out the stock Fox shocks for fancier ones. How does that change the handling of your Raptor. Is it still as compliant in the bumps?

i spoke with jarrett at RPG eralier today and let me just say he had nothing but great things to say about this set up they're testing today. keep posted to this thread they're gonna be posting a video either tonight or tomorrow and answer any questions we have im sure. this is one bad ass set up and its totally different from the stock set up for one its 3.0 the stock shocks are just 2.0 or 2.5 not too sure on that but the performance with the external bypass in the front and back are incredible. i cant wait to see what they come up with next:waytogo:

My initial questions are:
- Do these shocks retain the full range of the Raptor's wheel travel, front and rear?
- How do the damping rates compare to the Fox Racing shocks that come on the Raptor from the factory?
- Both Ford and Fox hype the high-tech damping fluid in the Fox Racing shocks that come on the Raptor. Please compare the hydraulic fluid in these shocks with that in the factory Fox Racing shocks.
- Are these shocks rebuildable? By the truck owner?
