Comment from : @parales03

Good video but vise grips on that shock shaft Ugg I see a leak in his future
Comment from : @JessicaMccrary

The explanation is excellent The text on screen has an error every time he says damping The text says dampening which is the verb meaning to make something wet I appreciate he is at least saying damping correctly! :)
Comment from : @johnpearson492

What would you recommend for a 2013 ram slt 4x4 1500 ? Stock rims with stock size bf all terrain tires I do mostly city and some simple off-road but are like washboard roads for the week, and some more harsh off-road and washboard off road roads on the weekends I Like a smooth ride I am not sure between bilstein 6112 and 5160 combo or all 5100 Not concerned about the price difference between them , I just want the best ride possible Also thinking maybe about raising the front a bit to make it more level ,only if this does not affect ride quality or smoothness If you recommend any other models please let me know since the price of the 6112 are higher I can look at other brands
Comment from : @dafp3479

My truck is a 2018 1500 sierra denali Daily driver absolutely no off-roading and no towing I have other vehicles for that All I want is a 2” level and a very comfortable ride Witch one do you recommend?
Comment from : @GabrielRamirez-y2j

Comment from : @fernandoalmanza831

Can you install fix 20 one up one down on rear ??
Comment from : @charleswachta5010

Bilstein are the best
Comment from : @hemanferrales9868

My 97 Toyota 4Runner still rode and handled like new with 288k on the factory Bilsteins brAnd no, those weren’t all highway miles
Comment from : @davefox8948

You can change the valving on the Fox's and dial them in Why wasn't that part of the information?
Comment from : @larrycarpenter-yt4ot

i read a lot of reviews and most of them say that on an f250 the Blitstein are rougher riding than the fox 20 but here the opposite is said Which do you buy
Comment from : @dashcam3098

Linear spring rate does not increase as the shock compresses That's that's what a progressive spring does So are you saying fox are progressive ? As opposed to linear

Comment from : @mikestralkowski2020

i have a Hummer H3 2006 daily driver overlander off-roader which would you recommend?
Comment from : @SergioluisPerdomoVieyra

How many km bilstein 5100 last
Comment from : @marshalkwt

I’m confused In other videos from shock surplus, they said the linear nature of the fox 20 made it ride softer for daily commuters And now you’re saying the 5100 rides smoother I am really really confused now
Comment from : @jasonguy6572

Great video! Thanks! I have a 2022 Ford F-450 with stock shocks, wheels and height I do have a 25" leveling kit in the front, however that is all I am wanting a smoother ride when not towing my 21,000lb 5th wheel Is the Bilstien the best option, or is the FOX 20 PERFORMANCE SERIES REMOTE RESERVOIR FRONT SHOCK a better option? Thanks in advance
Comment from : @Ren_O_72

Hello, l’m installing a 4”bds lift and 37”x125 x20 on a f350 gasbrI’m a daily driver, highways, regular roads possibly minor off road Please point me in the right direction Bilstien or foxbrThanks
Comment from : @danielmolloy5675

I have the fox 20 and they are way to responsive they make you feel car sick I need to switch
Comment from : @itslegitkid6222

So getting ready to do a leveling kit on my 23 elevation with the 30 Been seeing a lot of guys using the bilstein and replace upper an arm Is that a good way to go about it Factory ride feeling like an old 70’s boat cars Wanting a good ride out of it It gets off the pavement but no Baja off roading by no means
Comment from : @armandoveloz5644

Ive got a mostly stock 1991 jeep yj, im leaning towards the 5100s as i am going to give it a 4 inch lift, the jeep as of now is a short distance commuter that will likeley be a 70 commuter and 30 offroader, would you still recomend the bilstiens?
Comment from : @acethe_2nd405

Which one does it all with 33-inch Baja Tires on a Jeep Wrangler JL and smooth on Highway bumps and cracks
Comment from : @jamieeisenhower1560

So 20 is too harsh but smoother with small bumps, but 5100s are better daily driver but stiffer? I’m confused I though that would be the opposite
Comment from : @Post_Oak_

Need advise for shocks 06 silverado with a 6" lift daily driven no offroad
Comment from : @albertrivera5443

Getting a Cognito leveling kit for my 2015 2500hd gas,brPleasantly surprised fox shocks gonna be softer on road, though oppositebrTo me huge difference is 3" rise instead of 2" or 225" with other brands for the same moneybrSoftness will be a good help with more cranked torsion bars as well
Comment from : @andrejsavin4814

I have a 98 jeep Cherokee xj 35in Rubicon Express lift with31x1050 tires, right now i have Bilstein 5100 shocks,they are getting worn out,what shock would you recommend for it, it's a Daily driver and a little off-road and i live in NYC
Comment from : @joeytonetti2519

What does it mean the shocks are tunable? If i buy the fox 20 can i put it on my jeep out of the box?
Comment from : @rickjames5998

What’s high pressure 150 psi
Comment from : @robertm2172

I've been OK with the stock shocks on my 2019 Wrangler Rubicon JLU, but now two are leaking If I'm probably not going to lift it but do want a really good dependable quality shock that can handle off roading, including a rooftop tent, what do you think the best option would be? Thanks!
Comment from : @echristianh

"Fox 20 is sometimes too harsh too firm for some vehicles" you're saying that about the linear and not the digressive shock right next to it, complete conflicting information the whole video 🤡
Comment from : @mz1906

Great, honest review, thanks!
Comment from : @span2413

I have the 5100's on my 1996 Bronco with a 4' lift and 35" tires I absolutely love them on and off road
Comment from : @livewithnick

I have a 2012 F350 dually with a leveling kit and 22in It has a set of Fox shocks on it right now It's my daily work driver and I do go to our hunting property at least once a month which has some pretty rough terrain I recently changed out my corroded body mounts which helped But I am still looking to make the truck ride better What would you guys recommend
Comment from : @RUDYR-y4s

Can you run the fox 20 on a 2007 Ford Expedition regular model not EL?
Comment from : @professionalchimp

LoL the difference is i can't find the fox 20 for my lift height like I can for the 5100 but I hate my 5100s off road they're too harsh on every little bump 05 sierra 1500 with 1-3 lift front, 1 in rear
Comment from : @2AMech

What would you recommend for a Ram 1500 on 20inch rims I do tow with the truck
Comment from : @andrewjackson630

Comment from : @twsamuels

Ok so which ones is best for a truck being used to hotshot
Comment from : @avenmiller7597

I have a 1997 Cherokee on 45 inch lift w/ 33’s but I don’t do any off-roading just using it as my daily for work and school and the ride it shit so for a daily driver would it be worth it for me to buy the fox for a more softer ride on ride cuz rn stiff but I’m also replacing all the old steering components and most of the suspension to more heavy duty cuz it’s all OEM
Comment from : @firesorcererfs6029

I have a stock 1990 F150 RWD brNo lift kit no leveling kit brBut I would love run on fox shocks or a least the 5100 without adjustment setti g
Comment from : @kevinglainez8151

Chevy 2500hd towing 14,000 lb camper what is the best compared to factory rancho stock no level kit or lift
Comment from : @thomasroseman575

The Bilstein shocks have a lifetime warranty against leaking seals (defects), the Fox shocks only have a 1 year warranty That alone swayed me to buy Bilstein Why pay almost double the price for almost no warranty?
Comment from : @briangc1972

So bilstein would soak up bumps and pot holes at a higher speed better than at slower speed
Comment from : @flushot6513

I got a 14 Silverado with 7” rc lift and 22” on 35” mud tires with 4:56 gears I don’t mud ride too much but roads out here aren’t the best but do a lot more city miles Should I roll with the 5100s? Rn when driving with my rc shocks I can feel the bed slightly bouncing the whole ride and they’re fairly new
Comment from : @nicholasdufresne504

Currently my 2021 Tacoma TRD have Bilstein 6112 with Bilstein springs in the frontbrRear, Bilstein 5100 and an ICON AAL SETUP brThe original plan was Bilstein 5160 in the rear BUT so far happy with this setup brbrTime to test with serious off roading 😊
Comment from : @useryggfdcc

Thank you for the comparison I've gone from 15" spacer and 345 to 33 and icon 25 to 33 stock tire size and 5100 It rode the best on 345" and spacer for my offroad which is logging roads and easy trails The icon were complete garbage under say 40 mph on gravel Speedbumps and and sharp bump was extremely unpleasant On highway it handled like on rails 5100-meh, not good not bad Sharp abrupt bumps are still unpleasant but at a fraction of icon price I'm up to 245k miles and probly needing new struts and shocks again and the fox 20 have been on my mind
Comment from : @coddizzle

Can you please recommend a leveling kit for 2023 trd off road Tacoma that would not void warranty on it ? I don’t want to compromise the MPG and OEM suspension I know that dealer sells a kit that is tune by belistans but I need to keep the budget Thanks in advance and I really appreciate all the education that you provide on your videos
Comment from : @hectorarias5034

Bro thanks for the great, no BS video explanation on the difference of the two shocks I am considering I'm going with Bilsteins and I'm buying them Shock Surplus!
Comment from : @jimclifford1241

5100 Sounds perfect for me 90 highway, and I've got a bad back, so I really just want to keep the back end from popping up so much on me

Comment from : @highwayhydroponics5823

What shocks would you guys recommend for a stock height 21 f350 fx4?
Comment from : @chadwallo8026

Is it normal for the blue cover on the b4600 series to have a crimpled look to it? Just had both front and rear installed at a shop on my 96 k1500 gmt400 they look like they’re slightly squished on the rear (the blue cover) they don’t seem to be malfunctioning tho just didn’t know if that’s normal for their look after install And there isn’t anything poking out or broken sorry if this seems like a silly question but this is my first time replacing shocks
Comment from : @TrippyWoodStock

I am new to the Jeep community, I recently bought a 2019 jeep unlimited sport altitude, I came with 255/70R18 all-season tires, I would like to put a little more aggressive tires on it, I am not into rock crawling, only light trails is the plan for now If I put spacers 15 or 2" high, I understand could fit bigger tires, but would I lose comfort when driving on the road? If this is the case, will Fox 20 or the Bilstein 5100 shocks help me get a smoother ride on the route? Thank you
Comment from : @Checo1

Super info !! Thank you brCan I expect any noticeable difference going from Rancho to Bilstein?brBought a 2017 F350 gas 62L w camper/snowplow pkg (3:73), 35" tires, 18" wheels FX4 with Ranchos in Sept 2020 with about 45K miles on it It's been 25 years and I've put 15k on it with 5-8 camping trips 50-180 miles towing our 6400# travel trailer One 1000 mile trip to the beach (east coast) each August and the rest is driving 5-10 miles to the hardware store or gas station once a month brOnly got the 350 because it was underpriced so I'd like to soften the ride some with shocks if possible Will upgrade to a newer 250 eventually so not worth spending more than something I need replace anyway like shocks
Comment from : @ThePackDad

92 wrangler with a 4 inch lift and 33 inch tires I don't think anything will help the ride this thing puts out Mostly around town and pot holed back roads of Vt Think the 5100s will help ? I have 10 year old skyrockets that aren't doing anything I presume but I don't think anything will smooth out a leaf sprung jeep
Comment from : @autoshaman4319

I've got a 1991 Ford Ranger 4x4 with a 2" lift (Skyjacker) and i am wanting something that soaks up bumps a little easier but also have a bit more control feel than the Skyjacker BlackMax shocks that came with the kit I've had them on one trail ride so far and washboards and potholes are rough and whoops/alternating humps in the road really make the truck jump around a lot What is your recommendation?

Comment from : @clifblake

Will fox 20 still run smoother around town and rough fireroads for a 2021 F250 superduty diesel?
Comment from : @celardo

I ran Fox 20s on my lifted Superduty and they made the truck fell spongy at higher speeds The 5100s are definitely firmer and do help control a larger or heavier vehicle especially those with diesel engines Fox 20s are better off-road

Which bilstien shock is comparable with the fox 20 adventure?
Comment from : @kbcamfam

I have a 2020 Ram 3500 DRW with factory rear air, stock tire size, and stock height I put a truck camper in the truck bed which is pushing 5000 lbs of added weight when loaded I'm looking to upgrade the factory shocks to add more control when driving (minimize body roll/minimize bouncing) while still offering a reasonably comfortable ride when the truck is unloaded What do you suggest? Thx
