My right rear shock on my Hoss 3.0 Suspension takeoffs with a Foutz 2" collar lift is leaking and was curious what was the best route and most cost effective, replace the leaking shock, rebuilding the leaking shock, or swap to a different suspension set up. If swapping to a different suspension set up what is the best riding suspension for the money. The Hoss 3.0 Suspension only has 8000 miles on it as well and hasn't had too rough of a life since I have had them. Another question is it leaking cause of the collar lift?

Many people use collar lifts all the time without this problem. I have an FMI 1.5” set on my ‘23 WT 3.0 and 14K miles, all kinds of extreme driving and no leaks.

I‘d just replace what probably was a bad shock and keep your setup, if you are happy with it.

Thank you for the info, that is most likely what I will do.
