Eibach shocks vs Fox HOSS 3.0

[Faišal leo]

Hi
I have bronco 4 doors Badlands SAS with Fox HOSS 3.0 while these shocks are very good off road that are stiff and harsh on the road where I spend most of the summer because I can't go off-roading because of my work so I searched for the most comfortable and smooth shocks for the Bronco and I found these: Eibach Pro-Truck Coilover Stage 2
So
1- Are these shocks softer and smoother ON-ROAD compared to what I have (FOX HOSS 3.0)
2- And is it worth the change because the Eibach shocks are not cheap
3- If you have any other suggestions better than this

My guess is that eibach would be a downgrade but they may ride “softer” because they are weaker…like an ‘70s caddie…

I haven't rode on the Fox 3.0s to compare but I'm running the Eibachs w/ standard springs...no harshness on or off road. In the world of coil overs I would consider the Eibachs best bang for the buck for all around use w/o spending an arm and a leg. Probably not the best choice for high speed running or serious crawling.

I think you bought a Bronco, that is going to ride like a bronco. Tire pressure will effect ride more than changing coil overs. The stock Goodyear's are a C load rating, so you are not going to get much softer.

The stock FOX shocks are plush the stock soft sidewall Goodyears ride smooth.
Explorers ride nicer tho, maybe trade?

I have the OEM SAS Bilstein shocks on mine. I have been happy with them, very smooth. So that could be an option. You can find lots of take offs in the classifieds.

The OEM Bilstien are digressive valved and you can feel every grain of sand you drive over on the highway.

The Fox shocks he has now are MUCH softer valved in the ride zone. He would absolutely hate the hoss 2.0 bilsteins…

I find them very smooth. I don't feel much of anything that I'm driving over. Can take speed bumps and street changes (uneven) pretty fast.
