FOX PERFORMANCE ELITE SERIES 2.5 - feedback / review?

[AccuTune Offroad]

I was under the impression that the fox would have the ability to add .0 to the front and .5in to the back at the lowest setting effectively not giving it a lift with SAS. (as i have hight issues already)?

i guess the question is can you tune the fox to not be any taller but better ride quality especially on road. particularly in your video the part about road vibration coming from the rear being tuned out?

this is the thing that most drives me crazy it feels like the rear tires are constantly out of balance

Negative, you cannot run a 0" lift or .5" lift properly. I am not sure the spring/body would even allow for it. Most aftermarket shocks are designed to give you lift, but also more overall travel. Because of this, their compressed lengths are longer so lowering the shock from its required height would provide little to no up travel and not ride well at all.

So there’s no “stock height” replacement shocks that don’t add any lift ?

Not from Fox. Their lift height ranges start at 2" of lift and go up to 4.5"

so if you install the min lift of 2" can everything else stay the same? control arms etc?
basically install and get an alignment?

You'll probably get a lot of feedback from Wildtrak owners with the HOSS 3.0 package.

Ok, calling you out. I don't know how to do "Polls" on here, but I bet most HOSS 3 Wildtrak owners know the difference from "Factory (Ford) Fox 2.5's IB" and the "Factory (Fox) 2.5 IB". I hope I'm right?

Your best bet might be hoss 3.0 take offs. Should be really close to SAS package height, if not the same? but ride softer then hoss 2.0.

IBP = Internal Bypass
Fox Factory is a 3.0 IBP, not a 2.5
