Agreed.
Now the issue becomes what to replace them with. I've read threads that state fox 2.0 are stiffer than the Mopar fox shocks, also that Bilstein 5100 are stiffer than the fox 2.0 . All this is anidotal.

I can tell you from past experience that Bilstein was stiffer that Fox, Rancho, and Old Man Emu. I am sure some of that might very well depend on model.

I would get the falcon 3.3's. Falcons are notoriously stiffer which will solve your handling problems. Expansion joints and small bumps will be pretty rough but it will control the vehicle properly.

And that is the reason I haven't purchased shocks yet. I need to find shocks that will control the body roll and yet still be comfortable to drive. I'm usually in the dirt 2 -3 times a week.

Monotube 2.0 Fox shocks don't get rebuilt they get replaced.

If I was going to migrate away from the Fox (which I love Fox) I'd go Falcon or really go dog house, Wife kicked me out with these...

You might want to check out Accutune. I purchased the Fox 2.0 Performance Series Remote Reservoir shocks for front and rear and am quite happy with them. They are definitely firmer than the stock Rubicon shocks on harder bumps, and I have no body roll issues at all.

Accutune will tune them to your specific needs and firmness, and unlike the Fox 2.0 IFP and Mopar versions, they are completely tunable and rebuildable.

Good luck.

I have been happy with the rock krawler rkk shocks. The ribbed ones. They are rebuildable, can be revalved, and will offer stiffer or softer valving stacks on request.

Yes I have those from Accutune, those are not the same ones I was referring to not being rebuilt.

I understood that you were referring to the 2.0 IFP's, and you are absolutely correct that they are use once and throw away. I just wanted to point out that the 2.0 Performance Series Remote Reservoir versions were rebuildable and can be custom valved/tuned to suit his needs. If I had more money I would have gone up to the 2.5's., but these seem like a happy medium for now. Plus, I can attest that even the Adventure Tune I went with was definitely firmer than my stock Rubicon shocks.
