fox suspension

How have you gone with the fox suspension?

[triton_guru]

Yeah still waiting apparantly theres no bolt in kit so they are making a coilover specific for the triton the company is big o 4x4 im expecting a quote in the next couple weeks, they are also making up a quote for a trophy truck bar

[cnswilly]

Any news?

[triton_guru]

Fox havernt released a coil over for the triton so have now ordered king shocks with the remote resivour fitted for about 2800, 60mm lift will let u guys know how i go

[borngeek]

might have trouble with that too. king is a us company and the triton does not exist there. ie. they do not make suspension that fits the triton.

considered using products already proven and working... oh and available to purchase?

[triton_guru]

The triton is known as the l200 over there and i have already held the king shocks for my car and look exactly lie the pic on the red triton, why settle for second best when you can have the best? Ask any other suspension dealer how does kings compare to theirs n all u will hear is ours is cheaper, will kdep u guys updated on they are installed

Can you send me a PM with the part numbers please?

might as well put the part numbers in this thread- be good for the forum as a whole and save searching

could change the thread title to coilover options

[oldplodder]

Looks good.
But are you doing the 4wding to make it worthwhile?
That looks like a full rally/offroad race set up for long travel and lighter loads.
Getting the spring rates right to suit your load setup may take a while.
If the triton is mainly used around town and intercity, why go the extra expense?
Spend that extra money on something else more useful, maybe a chipit chip?
Unless you are racing the ricers over speed bumps, and even the stock suspension beats a ricer over a speed bump. )

My brother has fax suspension on his jk wrangler, they are awesome stuff !

Never heard of a triton with them though, so if you get them keep us posted !

All the best !

[triton_guru]

The company is big o 4x4, I couldn't get the part numbers but give Andrew a call and he should be able to help u out, the price difference between the kings and say ultimate is around $600 so I thought it would be worth the investment as the kings are fully rebuildable, as soon as the tax return is through I will have paid the remainder on the suspension and have them installed, trying to pay for my trip to the UK is getting in the way haha

Another option would be TEIN Suspension, not sure what kind of lift one could get from them but still an option, not a bad price either.

Ιt;s a very good suspension!!!......my profenders are really good,and with a good price!!

[brodical]

Hmmmm I like he look of em and the price...seems very reasonable ..never heard of em though..

[Kegsy]

Tein make good stuff.
Very popular with the import guys and track cars.

[triton_guru]

Lol its road suspension not off road, even says good for a track day haha and it has adjustable camber??

[brodical]

Imagine that a triton meet up at a track day lol...be funny as....

[Kegsy]

Lol its road suspension not off road, even says good for a track day haha and it has adjustable camber??

Its a standard sales pitch, all the ads probably read the same.

Its an adjustable coilover strut... Pretty flexible in setup, you should be able to tune it to suit. Spring rate for the coil will be the main concern.

Just set the ride height, and dampen to your needs. IE: stiff for road, wind it out for flexy time

The top hat probably has a slide for camber adjustment on some models, isn't of any use in a double A arm setup. Probably won't have it.

[macca002]

The TIEN kit looks the goods for price. The info about going around the track is clearly a copy/paste jobby

Wonder how the valving is, as 'soft' for a road car is different to 'soft' for a 4x4....

[Tony81]

Just spoke to the guys at Fulcrum Suspension @ Stafford.

TEIN is designed for lowering your vehicle it can be used off road but it is mainly for street use....

For some this might be an option still

Another option would be Radflo Suspension from Snake Racing but they are a bit pricy!!

FOX suspension is pure top of the line.. Like Ohlins, just havent been around as long.
But for what time they have been around theyve surely rustled some feathers amongst the big boys brands.

The new Ford raptors in the states come with FOX suspension and their a $150K ute to buy.

Not sure how to put the Facebook link in..

[triton_guru]

That's proper expensive that's the price of my whole kit, leaf springs bushings labour everything
