Hi,

Now that fox released the shocks for the non raptor I wanted to see if anyone has bought and installed them? I plan on picking up the 2.0s with a 0-3 inch lift (front) and 0-1 inch lift (rear)

I want to raise front the full 3 inches and make the rear level with that (I’m assuming the full 1 inch will do it)
Curious if anyone knows if the above info is correct.

Also curious if with that extension I will need new UCA’s

The description does say you can use them to “level” without straining ball joints or linkages and maintain OEM reliability but not sure

You're supposed to be able to run these with your factory UCA's. As you stated, it should be like a level setup.

i think that everyone says the limit for new control arms is 3", though. i have a 2.5" level and ford was able to get the alignment in specs so i can vouch for that amount but 3" i am not sure

Have you been able to find these shocks in stock anywhere? I have looked a couple of times and haven’t found them in stock anywhere. I haven’t gone the extra step to call anyone and see if they might ship directly from fox or not, or to check for expected dates to have them in stock.

Ask dirtderrick, he should know better than us.

I can't wait to get these. Personally I'm planning on running 2.0s with a BDS 1" rear shackle lift to keep a little rake for when I'm loaded down.

Can't comment on the Ranger 6G, but on the 5G, they are great! I would expect the same.
