Sounds like this is going to be one VERY impressive truck. The commenters sound pretty stupid.

Ford F-150 Raptor to tear it up

I told CT93 about this way back. He did not believe me. BTW, where is CT93?

his name is CT92 and i don't know where he is...

this should be freaking sweet. 6.2L 420hp V8 and 12" travel Fox Racing shocks from the factory? i wouldn't mind one...

yeah except for th efact that they should have installed king suspension on it, not fox...looks clean to even as a factory vehicle, if i was to get one all i would do is install a race radio, and swap out the fox shocks for some kings all around it..

If SVT is working on it I'm sure the set up will be excellent, although I don't know how much experience they have with off road racing.

i've never heard of King shocks. i'm sure they went with Fox because they are an instantly recognizable name so they'll sell more trucks. i'm just impressed that they're 12" travel from the factory...

Double Post...

well from personal extensive experience i can tell everyone here that fox shocks suck. When i was doing shock tests on our prerunner, fox did the worst, bilstein held up nicely , and king/sway-away held up the best. The fox didnt last the first day of testing, without needing a rebuild, the spherical bearings in the rear shocks ended up making alot of noise after the first two test runs, the bilsteins did a nice job, good shock if your just moving along slowey with a trailer or very slow prerunning, and king/sway-away had the most stress put on them, and held there ground through out both testing days..so idc what svt does to the setup, the shocks they are using suck .the end

i've never used any of them so i'll take your word for it, lol. i didn't even know Fox made shocks until they started putting them on the Fox Racing Concept Truck that Ford used to show...

yeah because fox goes on all the pretty boy trucks that never get used, but for purpose, kings or swayaway is what its all about although i can't say about the brand new bilstein black hawks. never used them before but i hear they are verrrrry nice

yeah fox has made shocks for a little while, were you thinking of fox clothing/riding gear?

i want Koni's on my car, don't think they make off-raod shocks...

yeah... are these 2 separate companies? Ford had a Fox Racing Concept truck that had "Fox Shocks" but all of the badges and vinyls on the truck were Fox Racing clothing/riding gear stuff. my bro has some fox racing springs on his dirt bike so i figured it was the same company...

yeah koni makes a good car shock but never heard of anyone putting any on for offroading/prerunning...

I'm pretty sure there two different companies, i think they might be brother companies, but i know th elogo for fox shocks and fox riding wear are differnt heres the two logos:
