Was offered 113,500 for my 23R with 3,000 miles via a wholesale bid at my local dealer (I paid 121k for it in December). I didn’t like the 24 enough to justify the extra cost (they wanted my truck and 10k) and they weren’t willing to wait on me to sell it. Keeping the 23 unless some magic deal hunts me down. I think the 23R looks marginally better anyway.

Take that 10k and buy the new Gen 3 FRS shocks when they come out.

99% of the people will not even notice any difference in the shocks.

Yep, or the whipple upgrade. But just a pedal monster livens it up quite a bit on its own.

I agree but the FRS shocks will be noticeable. The Gen 2 ones were a noticeable upgrade.

The GEN3 FOX LV IBPs will be the same as the GEN2. Had a conversation with the boys at FOX. The GEN2s go right on the GEN3s.

I have them.

Will they need to alter the rears, isn't there 1" less travel on the gen 2 shocks?

My understanding is the rears are too short and not valved for the 5 link. Also, the top hat bolts on the Gen 2 shocks are narrower than the Gen 3 bolts. They fit, but it would be better for them to be correctly sized.
