    Looking for some real world results on Fox 2.5 RR shocks that Accutune has tuned. Trying to decide if its worth sending them down or just run them as they are. Looking for the best ride on the street and forest road performance mainly. They suggested the Adventure tune and would be the best for my needs. Good guys, just want to make sure its worth the $$ to have them tuned/revalved.

    One of the best in the business. I have been running around in a Jeep JL with AccuTune Off roads lift and tuned Fox shocks. #would

    Great to hear you recommend them. Finally outgrown my 5100's. Was going to place the order with SDHQ but having purchased from them before, I have no earthly idea what the shipping costs are until they send me the second bill. If I don't like it, my money is tied up until the refund goes through for the first charge. Really odd business practice

    Did you use one of the 3 tuning choice? (Adventure, dual or trail)

    I have Accutune Fox 2.5 RR (No DSC) - Adventure tune. Just as good as my Raptor was. No regrets. I felt like DSC wasn't necessary for my use and I'm definitely a set it and forget it kind of guy so it would be a waste of money since it's custom tuned/valved already by Accutune for what I want.

    Thanks for the input. That was the one I was leaning toward. Is it squishy at all on the road?

    I wouldn't say squishy. I feel like the stock shocks are squishy, boat like, and bouncy where your head kind of bobs up and down, side to side with the motion of the truck. The adventure tuned Foxes made the truck feel a little tighter but not stiffer in a way.. it soaks up the bumps good and gets rid of the bounciness. My head doesn't move as much with the action of the truck if that makes sense lol. It's more isolated feeling.

    How much does it cost to get them rebuild by them? Mine are about ready

    Haha, yes it does. The stocks are really squishy. My 5100s are extremely firm but also soak up bumps like a whacker on concrete. I'm hoping for a compromise, we'll see. Expensive leap of faith

    How many miles are you seeing before a rebuild?

    I’ve got about 40k on them maybe 45. Can’t recall my mileage after I installed them. But they seem fine no leaking no harsh ride I’m sure they can go a lot longer Im about 85% on pavement till hunting season comes around but I’m gonna do a 60k maintenance soon so thought I’d just do everything I could an not have to worry for another 5-6 years.
