The rear shocks are the same as the stock shocks dimensionally except for maybe a 1" longer overall stroke (giving you the ability to raise the rear if you wanted to). I can assure you that your stock FX4 shocks are not perfectly fine... My truck had 1,200 highway miles on it when i put the Fox kit on and the damper's were low on pressure and were already cavitating with air. Rebound damping was inconsistent making the truck uncontrollable over consecutive bumps.The Ford Performance leveling kit replaces the rear shocks as well. But are those shocks any different that the Fox shocks in the FX-4 package? It seems like I'm being asked to replace perfectly good shocks.
The Ford Performance Fox shocks are tuned differently than the standard Fox 2.0 shocks that are available through all of the aftermarket vendors. The only way to get the "special" Ford Performance tune is by purchasing them through a Ford Performance dealer.
