teraflex fox shocks vs fox shocks
ok so I am going to take the plunge on some new fox shocks but I see that teraflex has a fox shock setup and fox shocks has a set. Are these two the same?? I see that the teraflex system is priced quite a bit cheaper?

I think the Fox shocks used in some TF kits are the 2.0's and they are valved for TF's spring rates. The differences in pricing may be the shock body, shaft diameter, external reservoir or not, valving and so on

This is the correct answer. The standard Fox 2.0 shock isn't great for a JK. Teraflex and BDS both have custom valved Fox 2.0 shocks that they offer and they are a huge improvement.

I thought Fox shocks are for racing rigs. Does the Teraflex Fox shocks work well with DD and mild/moderate offroad? I am in the market and so up and down about shocks.

I have the standard Fox 2.0's and they are a bit harsh, but good offroad and work well when carrying extra weight, was in a bind at the time of the lift install and needed shocks asap, they work good enough for now..

What's up D! Told ya you'd love 'em!
The standard are great offroad, but as you mentioned a bit harsh. The BDS and Tera ones ride much better on the road.
