For the shocks to work 100% they need to be taken apart and the damper has to be mechanically re-arranged.
Anytime you change the static ride height of the truck that is the only way to maintain the factory performance.

This info is from Fox directly!
Would you have to send your shocks to Fox or can the shop do that kind of work?

can you please link the site where it states you have to take apart the damper if you replace or upgrade the shocks please I want to take a screenshot so I can take that to the shop so they know what they have to do.

Is the fact that it's stiffer a bad thing?
[/QUOTE]

For me it is ok. More or less in normal suspension mode is like with standard springs in sport mode. Coming off the asphalt the suspension has to be switched to offroad mode, because on normal it is too hard. I have already done more than 50 thousand kilometers on these springs and I am very satisfied. Most of my rides I do on asphalt. Combined with the power from Bare with BPT is a must :)

Are you going to upgrade your UCA? Are you going to put 35’s on your truck? Where did you get your Eibach springs from?

I purchased a set of Eibach springs at a FORD dealership.

Give Fox service a call. I was told by them directly over the phone.
They said that it would be included in any normal shock service if requested.

I believe Fox is working on a new kit, like they have with the existing Ford Ranger models. Might be some time, but it's likely legit. I've become a big fan of the Fox Ford Performance kit on Rangers and it's a straight-forward install.

The Fox complete aftermarket kit is the "A" answer. I much rather buy a 2.5 or 3.0 Live Valve upgrade that gives me a 1.75ish lift in the front. I hope something in that nature comes out sooner than later. I just want to get it done.

I wonder if the new Fox Ford Performance kit for the RR will be Live Valve ready.

I appreciate the low tech way you blocked your license plate. Just funny seeing that in the digital era is all. How are those lights on the steps controlled?

I recommend the Eibach set. The Raptor has become stiffer. In fast corners on asphalt, only the tire grip limits the car's capabilities :) :) :)

I am pretty sure they will come with a Live Valve option.
