Did someone say that was a factory error? IIRC that was determined after a LOT of time & effort..... yet Fox hasn't addressed the problem?

Race trucks doing race truck things...

This is a good point. Anybody with Kings is familiar with the clickity click sounds from the bypass check valves, and you either get used to it or you don't. But...... in an actual race truck there is so much other noise that it doesn't matter. It seems as if the OEM shocks absolutely had to be quiet as part of NVH requirements, but pretty much every performance mod (knobby tires, trans cooler fans, bed-mounted tool boxes, squeaky delren bushings, external bypass valves), crank up the noise, aka "race trucks doing race truck things".

Not to mention race brakes, holy hell. Sounds like a train coming to a stop.

It's so funny when people realize that afterwards. Before we moved into our current building, our business was mixed in with a German brand repair/service shop.

Soooooo many times have I seen people buy BBKs then turnaround a few weeks later complaining about their brakes and wanted them warrantied or removed.

To stay on the subject, I have had my Fox 3.0 one for about 500 miles, no major noises. My Pro Eagle jack rattles around the most in the back. Will report back if I hear anything else when I remove the jack.

Don't forget the noise from all those coins rattling around in the console.
