I got the shock security locks in as well as the replacement hardware. Happy to report that none of the issues I thought I would have manifested themselves. Shock security had already figured about my concerns and machined two different locks. Half of them are machined ~7mm deep to cover the bolt head while the others are machined ~12mm deep to cover the, generally taller, nut. I ended up going with the Nyloc nuts and even though they run taller than most nuts, they're protected perfectly by the locks. I'm pretty impressed with them.

Did you get fox 3.0s to replace the stolen stockers, HIGHLY recommend the 3.0s.

So you ordered the hardware and locks from them? Mind if I ask what the total was? I've been searching all week for the right hardware, and I should have just contacted them.

I just got stock replacements. I can't out drive them yet. I got the hardware from McMaster Carr. Part numbers are on the previous page. $115 for the locks, $23 for the hardware.

Sub'd to see your write up. Think I'm going to get these to protect my investment also. It's pretty sad that we have to spend the extra money to secure the shit we bust our asses to buy so that pieces of shit that don't want to work for it can't steal our stuff.

Pretty sad indeed. Karma is a bitch though. He'll probably put them on his stock F-150 thinking they're magic and end up driving it into a tree. Maybe i'll get lucky and he'll come back in time for me to introduce him to Mr. 168 gr. T-TSX out of the ol' scout rifle. Thinking of either makes me feel a little better about it! :ROFLJest:


Yeah I prefer someone do all the hard work and figure out what I need :)

The hardware looks legit so much appreciations for doing this.

It really is nice stuff. I had to figure it all out anyway. No point keeping it to myself!

My deductable is $100 for theft, so I upgraded to 3.0s for about $400. Insurance would have covered the cost of the stock ones, no problem.



I also went to 3.0s, because at that time, the shocks had a +1 month backorder.


Sweet! Sounds like a good plan, glad it got sorted out.
