Just wondering.

For those guys that don't want to rebuild their current fox's. or pay multiple thousands. And don't give a shit about big names.

What new shocks fit this truck nicely? front and rear.

You can look in the garage sale section for used ones on here as well. You pay a lot of money for a raptor because it has offroad shocks, you don't put cheap crap in place of it. Buy used or get yours rebuilt or drive it until you have money or pimp your ass on the corner.

plenty of shocks out there that are not cheap crap, or 4k either.

I'll leave the pimping to you.

What is your goal for this thread and what is your goal for purchasing shocks?

The cheapest would likely be to rebuild your existing shocks yourself.

New OEM’s are probably about $1600 for the set.

$4000 is low for 3.0s from a “big name”. You will almost have that in coilovers alone.

What did you have in mind performance-wise? You will either have a lower performance (assuming any company actually makes a shock that will fit the truck that falls into this category), the same performance, or better performance.

good question.

the goal is to find non total shit shocks that might not have the performance of the oem shocks. But also don't have that price.

1600 for a new oem set ain't that bad if someone doesn't go the rebuilding route.

and yeah, some shocks get to crazy prices. don't need none of that.

I’m not sure that a shock currently exists.
