Fox Factory Race Series

Rebound damping is typically first order in suspension and shock tuning, I wouldn’t want compression control without rebound control.

I am not sure how the Kings are setup, but I ahd those on my Gen 2 and that knob provided all the damping adjustability I needed. The rear bypasses were a nightmare and very hard to tune to my liking with hi and low speed compression and rebound, too much shit. Especially if you arent dialing in the suspension for a specific track you plan to be racing, which about nobody driving a daily driven Raptor does.
So if that knob did both rebound and compression simultaneously, then dont fix what aint broke in my opinion.

I sent Fox an email last week and they said to expect a mid to late 2024 release for factory race series for the GEN 3. they also did say for sure don’t put the GEN 2 rear shocks on the GEN 3.

Not surprised we got another push back. Forgot to ask them when I called yesterday.

Also every time Ive asked why not put gen 2 rears on a gen 3, theyve never given me an actual technical reason. I know a hand full of trucks running them on their gen 3 including myself and no problems. I wish Fox would at least give reasoning when saying things.

Update on the FRS version for Gen3’s…spoke with a FOX rep today & they advised that they are currently targeting a Jul/Aug timeframe for release of an updated FRS package (front & rear) for MY2021-2023, but they couldn’t confirm if MY2024 was included or not. So hopefully we have good news before summer is over…keep an eye on news starting this July. If it was a simple compatibility update, I’d think they’d already released them…so my gut says this is a bigger update coming for Gen3’s.

They say the same thing every year. Don’t hold your breath.

Look what we have here, a FRS shock with two valves.

Dang...look at the preload set on that spring above.....wow. Must ride like a Pogo Stick!

Now that is about the sickest setup I have seen as of yet using OEM length components.

How would we know, the coil may be shorter than the length of the shock, maybe there is Zero preload for that matter.
