Chances that you’ll be able to upgrade to these through Ford Performance at some point in the future?

Fox already had them on display in Moab- they will have three versions. A comparable to the Sasquatch Bilstein, and two adjustable coil overs with the best being much larger in diameter and having more adjustability. I got the impression they will be available on day 1.It's pretty likely Fox will have a Bronco offering. They already do for the Ranger and F150. What they are exactly and when aren't known yet. I'm going to take a close look at them when they do. Falcon is also doing something.
Whether they'll be available through FPP, dunno.
By adjustable, do you mean their Quick Adjust shocks?Fox already had them on display in Moab- they will have three versions.

I’m not an engineer or anything it just seemed feasible to meI'm not sure what you are implying here, but I do not see how Fox's Live Valve technology would be utilized on existing platforms that were not engineered by the manufacturer to take advantage of this tech in-house...
I can see manufacturers like Fox introducing replacement shocks, but they wouldn't contain Live Valve-type technology. I can also see future Broncos, such as the rumored Warthog, having this on-board.
Ride height (because they are coil overs) and valving... but honestly I am not familiar enough with their design to understand the valving adjustability.By adjustable, do you mean their Quick Adjust shocks?
Quick Adjust is shock valving. On coilovers it's on the remote reservoir. It's used to adjust ride stiffness. Softer for off-road, stiffer for around town, somewhere in between for long road trips.Ride height (because they are coil overs) and valving... but honestly I am not familiar enough with their design to understand the valving adjustability.
I was just happy to see companies producing for the Bronco
I gotcha... the title said, "Fox Live Valve...," it's the tech utilized on the '19-'20 Raptor and optional on certain UTV's. They are electronically/algorithmically controlled. Fox, amongst others, will most likely have a few alternatives to swap out the stockers if you so choose.I’m not an engineer or anything it just seemed feasible to me
Yea I figured since it was mostly electronics and algorithms that it could be a potential upgrade through Ford performance down the road.I gotcha... the title said, "Fox Live Valve...," it's the tech utilized on the '19-'20 Raptor and optional on certain UTV's.

Due to the fact that they are mostly electronics and algorithms is why they are not an upgradable path via an entity like Ford Performance... it's a turnkey system with several sensors, wiring, control unit, and other connections throughout... not to mention the tuning.Yea I figured since it was mostly electronics and algorithms that it could be a potential upgrade through Ford performance down the road.
