Well it looks like I have decided to go with the Fox 3.0's all the way around. I just had a few questions before I pulled the trigger on them. I want it to sit level but was wondering if the 3.0's will cause extrem angels and cause cv issues or ant other issues to the front b/c of the new shocks. My budget is limited so I don't want to get them if I have to upgrade everything else up front so that I dont have issues. I hope to some day upgade the UCA, rods etc but who knows when that will be.

Thanks

I'm running 3.0 Foxes all the way around with everything else stock. The fronts r adjustable so you won't have issues.

ISFast, how many miles do you have on them? Do you tune them your self or are they the RPG tuned 3.0's? Is it a DD and if so hows it do on the pavement? I have small kids so don't want it riding to rough when on the street. Do you have yours sitting level or a little lower than level. Sorry for all the questions! Thanks!

The fox coil overs have a softer spring than stock so they will ride a bit smoother. The rear will not be effected. And you can tune the rears to your liking for compression and rebound.

Get the RPG tuned Fox's. You won't be sorry. The ride is very smooth and they will be adjusted for what the midperch height would be which is the right height to make it level.
One suggestion, although I think they are already set up this way now, but make sure the upper front mounts are the Chrome Moly mounts. Not the Aluminum mounts. I think Fox is already putting them on all the Raptor Shocks so this may be a moot suggestion. I would ask anyway to make sure.

Does anyone know if the fox 3.0's are 'non-tuned' from Outlaw Off-road compared to the 3.0's sold by RPG (and SVC?)?

Is tuning necessary if I get DSC and QAB's?

I don't think anyone else does a tune on their shocks accept RPG. I have had a set on for a couple years now and I am absolutely sold on them.
Why question if your going to be happy with the ride when there are so many that have RPG tuned Fox shocks with NO regrets.
Just pull the trigger and order RPG tuned shocks.

I've had both, Rpg tuned and straight from fox. Have been overly happy with both.

Went ahead and ordered mine from Jeff @ SVC. Got a great deal and great customer service! Oh and he was nice enough to go ahead and set the fronts to mid perch height for me :) Hope to be putting them on asap!
