Any Jeep folks here?

Welll.... its not quite that simple...
The 'popular' story is that this woman was visiting some kin in canada [with Georgia as I remember or some other American plate ] and some hosers were quite unkind to her. Really upset her, so her kinfolk suggested they go putter around and 'shake it off'. They wandered into a Dollar General or something and she saw a bag of little rubber ducks. These made her smile, so she bought them and began to put them on other Jeeps randomly to make those Jeep owner's day brighter.
The other story comes from a Jeep club somewhere in the Southeast [cant remember which state] that had a big Jeep get together every year that included a massive water crossing. Those that made it across received a rubber duck... get it? The Jeep club story appears to pre date the other, but the poor little girl spreading sunshine story has more , uh, um, don't want to say 'propaganda'... ummmm... HUMAN INTEREST value, so thats the one that is officially promoted.
Either way, it's a Jeep thing, and I think its fun. [from a guy who has never been ducked!]

I hadn’t ever heard of it until we got one on the Mojave right after moving to Idaho a few years ago. I had to look it up and see if it was a normal thing. Nobody does that in my former state of California that I am aware so it’s new to me.

My rough country shocks blew out that were on my Jeep when I bought it They did well but figured I would step it up a notch to these.
Anyone else running Fox shocks?

MIxed reviews from what I've read.
I've never tried a set.
I run Rancho RS9's and like their
adjustability, and have yet to have
one fail. They've been on my CJ for
quite a number of years.

Fox makes excellent parts for motosport, ATVs and UTVs. I can't imagine their automotive stuff is any different.

Certainly better than rough country.

I’ve had Rancho 9000s on a few rigs, no complaints and enjoy the adjustability. Our Mojave that we bought new had the factory Fox shox on it and it seemed to work nice. I’m sure Jeep spent some time getting them how they wanted them to work with the rest of the package. My 97 has the silver bodied Bilsteins and it rides really good. They were pretty stiff until I took it snow wheeling and gave them a bit of a workout running icy ruts with a bit of speed. They were much better after that workout. The two JKs have stock red shocks. I think they’re smoked on the ‘18, it’s a wallowing pig.

I use to set up Fox and King shock's at my old shop for all the beach trucks and the Fox was so easy to re valve. Luckily I hung on to all equipment if too stiff or soft it will bring old memories to tinker on them.
