I just put these on my truck this afternoon - went from Fox 2.0 to 2.5 (I had a feeling and it was confirmed I have a bad Fox 2.0 shock, with 27k miles maybe on the shocks and never off-road, not even on a gravel road, pretty disappointing) If you are doing this yourself, and you are using jack stands, which I am sure most people will be using that want to tackle this themselves. Put the shock in the lower mount first, it is A LOT easier to compress the shock down with your weight than press up, I was trying to do it the video has it and it was awful, after 30 minutes of fooling around I did it the way I mentioned and I had it mounted in 30 seconds. I had a good laugh at myself but trust me, if you are doing this yourself, you will want to do it this way. Wish someone would have mentioned this as it will save you a lot of time and a lot of aggravation. BTW I have a 2017 F150 torque specs are 66 pounds for the top and bottom bolts. That is OEM. From everything I have read Fox is the same.
You said you had ICON 2.5 up front? If so, I have the same setup. What is the true extended length? I know manufacture put "abc" and rarely is the case. Let me know please. Thanks
Stage 3 Motorsports Thank you my truck is 2017 Roush F150 it has Fox 2.0 Suspension installed by Roush but I want to go with 2.5 in the rear. Also I was wondering if ICON Delta Joint Tubular Upper Control Arm Kit will fit my truck with the wheels and tires that are installed on the truck right now. Front has Fox 2.0 Coilovers with Mickey Thompson 20X9 +18mm offset wheels with Mickey Thompson 305/55R20 tires

I would say they are good for daily use as well. We have put a lot of miles on and off road on the Fox 2.5 setup. They ride great on the street and absorb bumps like they're nothing. If you are looking for something that feels like it rides on a cloud like the stock setup, this is not that. But definitely not overly firm by any means

Which is more comfortable for daily ride on road,the 2.5 or 2.0?
the 2.0's are a great option for daily driving on the road
Did you guys have the Fox 2.0 in the front ???
Can these go on a six inch lifted truck?
Which ones are better these or the icon 2.5's for daily street driving
For daily street driving these Fox 2.5 shocks are exactly what you want.
What if I have the icon coilovers and icon UCA's up front
Then the Icon's would probably be a better option just to keep everything in line, both of these kits are very similar.
What size tires is he running on this? Do they make these for the 2019? Just picked one up
What’s the highest rear lift block you can run on this, without a leaf kit. I have a 4.5” block
U bolts cut short with a torch...
Classy 🙄

Will I be able to install those shocks with Rear Wheel inner fender wells already installed on the truck?
You will have a little less room to work with, but you should be able to

0:48 - 1:35 is like visual ASMR for me
How are they for the weekend warrior that daily drives his truck during the week? Are they overly firm? Our plush enough for the road?

@@stage3motorsports Which would be a plusher ride: Fox 2.0 or these Fox 2.5 with Redis, or Kings? I have F250 with 4 inch lift.
We haven't gotten our chance to test a set of kings to say which would be plusher but the fox 2.5's are incredible @@sharps9514
Fox is known for firm haha, i ride 2.0 and its pretty damn firm nd i dont have a block
Are these shocks available for the 07-14 ford expedition??
Fox does not make any shocks for the Expeditions unfortunately
