Finally "Used" my takeoff Fox coilovers.

I swapped out the Hoss 2.0 shocks on my Heritage 2 door manual last September for a set of Hoss 3.0 from a 4 door Wildtrak.
Since then I have taken it on road trips, some crawling, a lot of commuting.
I noticed the improvement immediately.
This week while out on a back road I saw a set of rain tracks crossing the road up ahead. No traffic around.
So I hit them at road speed and caught a little air.
THIS was the real difference.
It landed like a cloud.
No jar, no shake, no bounce.
Can't wait to hit some higher speed off road with it now.

Oh, and for those who may have forgotten... Here are the rolling rocks I recorded off my screen this afternoon.

How is body roll, brake dive and acceleration squat in comparison to Hoss2?

 

[EvilJim1971]

Honestly, a barley noticable difference.
Possibly because I am running 4 door springs on a 2 door manual.

I agree the ride is nicer than the stock Bilstein's.

I missed those rolling rocks on my screen, instead of the update for made of a bucking bronco outline.

I'm just happy mine still has it.

Thanks.

I have the exact same upgrade planed for mine...I have a 22 wildtrak but with factory bilstein. I got a set of new take offs from a 4 door. I'm a 2 door. Any ride height difference? We're they hard to put on? How much time should I allocate for this project? Tia

Since I'm a 4cyl manual I got better than 2 inches up front and over an inch in the rear.
I dropped it off at a shop to get it done.
The rears are easy, the fronts are more complicated.
Lots of videos of it to give you an idea on YouTube.
