fox shocks
I am looking at getting new fox shocks for my truck. I am going to get the 2.0 shocks with the piggyback reservoir for the fronts. Can i run the 2.0 shocks without extra reservoir for the rears or do they all have to be exactly the same? Thanks for the help.

They don't have to be the same, you can run which ever ones you want.
But the 2.0 non reservoir is an emulsion shock....not a nitrogen charged.
We sell Fox as well if you need any pricing.
If you aren't dead set on Fox, we also offer Sway-A-Way (availalbe in red or black caps). Sway-A-Way does have a 2.0 non-reservoir nitrogen charged shock.

Emulsion shocks have a reputation for fading, The oil in them can foam because it is not under pressure.
Normal driving will be fine, but agressive driving, they could get softer as they get hotter

Would it be okay to run emulsion shocks in the rear and nitrogen charged reservoir shocks in the front?

If properly valved you should get a better ride than a cheap white body shock.

hey somehow i just finally came upon this site while searching for reviews of Fox Shocks.
I have a 1999 F250 EC/LB 4wd with the Powerstroke and a 2" Procomp Shackle leveling kit. I desperately need new shocks, and I figured as a deployment present I would buy the truck new shocks. this is what im interested in. Is anyone here running them yet? Im sorry if im crapping in this thread, but im really not trying to... these are the ones i want:

Don't know about Fox shocks, but I recently put 4 Bilstein 5100's on my truck, and the ride is great. No more axle tramp and hopping, the ride is smooth and controlled on the highway.
