GEN 1 Forged Off-road 2.5 Replacement Shocks.

[Hasty]

I saw that Forged now offers 2.5 replacement shocks made by Radflo. Threaded body, remote reservoir, quick compression adjusters. Anyone try these yet? I’ve heard mixed reviews about Radflo curious for the communities input.

I'm interested as well. I was talking to Paul from Forged about it. I guess the idea is that the valving is responsible for the stiffness and not the diameter. So if you're not racing and just enjoying your truck, then 2.5s with adjustments should work and be cost effective...

Following this. The price point is very good and may be my next choice here when it's time for my next rebuild.

For the $3000 price tag I’m out. There are to many other great options for less.

I drove the Forged Offroad Raptor out at Johnson Valley and again in the Sacramento area and found the shocks to have a great ride both on and off road. I didn't run them hard but have seen them in action at Oceano Dunes and during a off-road event pre-run. The shocks are a upgrade over stock and far cheaper than 3.0 options.

I am curious as to what other great options for the Gen 1 Raptor are out there for less than $3k?

Arent 2.5s with DSC like 1800? Better than stock, not as good as a 3.0

The raptor has an odd length on the front shock and there is no stock direct 2.5" replacement available(other than ours). In order to run an "out of the box" 2.5" with DSC you would need a mid travel kit like SVC's.
