When should I expect to need to service the Fox shocks?

So after reading this, a member communicating with Fox, and we see that 50k is the marker.

Is this as simple as taking the truck off line for a bit, removing shocks, struts, packaging them up and shipping them to Fox for service? Fee + shipping and we are good for another 50k?

Prior to purchasing the Ranger Raptor someone mentioned to me enjoy paying for a shock/strut replacement. I had asked why and they said because it is a couple grand. I was like ouch. Of course I was ignorant so looked around and saw here that sending in to Fox was the way to go.

Anyway seems reasonable to send them in just making sure I understand it correctly. I'm a ways away from that but knowing is half the battle

That's pretty much it. I don't have the garage space to get this truck 4 wheels up and leave it for a a week+, so I had Texas Shock Works do the rebuild in house. They have general pricing on their website. They charged a bit more than F150 for the Ranger because its rear coilover. Including new bushings on the front shocks, it came out to $2200.

Looks like its $600-1000 via various mail in services.

The only thing I'm unsure about is if any "reprogramming" has to be done upon reinstall.

There shouldn't be. My ride height sensors were showing 0" after the rebuild. Its a pretty easy process with Forscan to recalibrate the ride height sensors if something was off.

I did need an alignment though.

What a rip-off, these shock should last 100 k miles
