True, it's a morgue over there. :lipssealed:

Yes, the Eibach were great on my 19 and if/when I replace mine I'll most likely go that route again..


Liar! :oops:o_O?

I would said a message to stage3. they should be able to help. also I second the eibach option. Bilsteins can be a bit stiff when empty imo. the eibachs are said to be in between them and the fox shocks(softest). another option if you can find some take offs from a used 5g tremor those are really great non height adjustable shocks.
I have and they show nothing for the 2024 …….

I would like to upgrade the shocks to FX4 shocks or after market one like Bilstien 5100 . I don’t see a listing for the Bilstiens , 2024 V6 .
dont want any lift ……so where can I get them or what are my options ?

I would reach out to Shock Surplus. These guys are really into it and test everything they sell. Some great write ups as well. As I said in another comment, I put the Eibach Pro Truck on my 2022 FX4 with 12k miles and they are far smoother on fire roads and handle better than OEM.

The 6G Ranger has more in common with the current Bronco front suspension wise. Rear suspension is pretty much the same as the 5G Ranger.

The rear suspension has outboard mounted shocks so those will be different.

Have not driven nor want to drive a 2024 but unless they improved the fx4 shocks I would avoid them. I replaced mine with Eibach 2.0 pro truck and 45k miles later they are still awesome and worth every penny.

Just about any shock is better than the fx4 shocks my 2019 came with.
