Christmas came early . . . :)

I approved and my son paid the invoice this Tuesday and received the package on the following day Wednesday. Talk about Fast Shipping!!! I can't wait to install these Fox shocks tomorrow morning at 5am :)

John Brindell at Agile setup for my RV V4 valving for the front and V5 valving for the rear - all based on the weights and compressed shock dimensions that I provided to him.

These Fox 2.0 IFP shocks better make a night and day difference improvement over those ProComp shocks that I stole from my lifted Bronco :)

Hope you don't mind me asking... ballpark cost?

I priced out Bilsteins locally and they wanted about $800 for the four. I'm thinking I could almost do better with custom FOX shocks.

That's too much and the Bilsteins are not even custom-valved. I paid LESS than that, and even included a Fox steering stabilizer, tax and shipping - all out the door. I didn't haggle on the price. Call John Brindell at Agile and haggle a bit :) if you'd like, you may save a ton if you're lucky :)

The obvious advantage of the Fox over the Bilsteins is they're rebuildable and re-valveable. So you only have to buy shocks once. And John is amazing at valving shocks. He did my van and my Jeep and they ride great...and I don't even run sway bars on either.

I'd not be hard to satisfy... I'm happy with the current ride and handling. Currently I've got 1 functional front shock and 2 rusty old rear shocks.
