The rubicon fox shocks aren’t great, but they’re so much better than the Overland shocks. Mine on the overland suspension floated down the road and bounced multiple times after big bumps. My Fox shocks stopped that until I added bumpers and a winch at 60k miles. Then it was almost as bad as with the overland shocks. My 5100s now are better than both though. No bounce but still rides good when you hit bumps. My brand new overland shocks and the rest of the overland suspension are gathering dust in my garage attic for almost six yrs now. I’ll sell it for scrap eventually. I love that ride on my 65 Deville convertible. HATE it on my Jeep. Plus, it towed like shit too.
I had the opposite experience - the Rubicon shocks bounced just leaving the garage where there's a 1" drop to keep water out. I'll never put the fox rubicon shocks on a Jeep again. They still sit in my loft, come and get them. The overland did good on our washboard gravel roads and were well-matched to the springs.
Shocks do not lift or support weight. They would be longer for a lifted Jeep, but they don't do the lifting.
No. different.
Nothing wrong with them.
I tossed mine in the recycle bin, I couldn't sell them ethically
Certainly different valving, but similar/same body.
