HOSS 3.0 Fox shocks service interval

[EvilJim1971]

I know that the F150 Raptor shocks should be serviced every 50k miles or so, but I can't find a definitive answer about the Wildtrak.

Ford doesn't have an interval. Run them till they leak. Then replace. You might get well over 50k depending on use.

Why replace when you can rebuild for much less?

I've done the rebuild route... it's a hassle and getting expensive these days! Better to just sell your leaking ones for a few bucks and put on new ones.

Rebuild can be drama too if not 100% properly done and the cost can escalate if there is any "issues".

There are shock tuner guys that can rebuild shocks onsite. Accutune is also top notch if you want to send them in and do some custom valving or change springs. Any community with some desert race culture should have a shock tuner. Not entirely sure those Fox's are rebuildable though. That's just the kind of thing that gets engineered out by an OEM to save $3

The Hoss 3.0 are damn good but they also have a great resale, especially with the recall on the Bilstein going on, and will pay for a good chunk of upgrading shocks.. That's what I did with mine.

@AccuTune Offroad, are the HOSS 3.0 Fox shocks rebuildable?

We unfortunately do not rebuild the Hoss 3.0 shocks.

I would recommend reaching out to Fox as they most likely will be able to service them.

I think you misunderstand; I don't have the Fox shocks. I didn't think any OEM shocks were rebuildable, that those were shocks that were setup to be torn down and rebuilt and were generally higher-end shocks like Kings. So I wasn't asking you if you'd repair my Fox shocks, I was asking if these were the rebuildable type. Maybe I'm mistaken about all this, though, and there's no such thing.

Fox offers the service.

Is it that way with any Fox shocks or just the HOSS 3.0 shocks?

2.5” Fox shocks on my Gladiator Mojave were rebuildable. Recommended at 50k miles. I sold it prior. I’d assume the wildtraks are similarly scheduled.

What would the turnaround time be for this?

I believe it would be pretty much any fix shocks.
