I'm not interested in anything Falcon from what I have seen and experience with clients. Too much money for what it is and poor support. I'm liking the Fox stuff because parts are easy to get, easier to get serviced, and the price is on par?

I'm also pretty invested in tuning for the SDI E-Cliks, but that will definitely bust your budget!
Well, the 21' models came with basic fox shocks and they sucked ... they bobbed and weaved and threw me all over the place. After going to Falcons now I have control and ride quality. The Fox 3.3 was way out of the ballpark for me so I went with Falcon and have Zero complaints .

I bet I could have bought shocks at Napa and been better than the OEM shocks that came on my Rubicon. ?
I flatly state without reservation or hesitation they was completely wore out at 45,000.
It took another 20,000 before it became extremely annoying. And another 15,000 to scrape the money to get the Falcons and the teraflex lift kit lower control arms and bumper ,tires rims etc... and other goodies.
When me and my Uncle took those front shocks off both of them was leaking and the rears was super bouncy.
I am often offroad and in rough driving situations. All I can say is man what a difference..

The oem mojave 2.5s are the only factory jeep shocks I've ever run that are worth a damn. It cracks me up when people start talking about shock extensions to retain their factory under dampened, short travel garbage. A $400 set of bilstein 5100s are a huge upgrade over the stock shocks on a JT or JL.
