So what's the expected life of the newer design? 10,000 road miles before rearch? 20,000 miles?

I'd be helpful for these companies to publish expected maintenance intervals... kind of like Fox does.

Depends how you use it. Probably a quarter of my 10K miles were offroad.

It's extremely hard to determine a maintenance plan lol fox has for shocks cause some people put stuff in the bed to take places or thy tow sometimes or tow a lot but yea I think a baseline estimate would be a good guildline to go off of

You realize that these springs are hammered out by hand on an anvil. Not exactly an exact science.

This thread has kinda lost base but does anyone have opinion on +1 dealers (new gen) with fox bumps and svc frame reinforcement. Or should i do the +2 with a drop shackle?
