    Has anybody had luck mixing different series of Fox shocks. I found a newer low mileage front trd pro pair for sale, no rears. Can I just get a pair of rear fox performance series and they would be valved similar?

    You'll be fine. Front and rear will not and should not have similar valving. Front shocks work on a roughly 3:5 motion ratio. Rear shocks are about 1:1 so will see much higher shaft speeds.

    Unless it’s a screaming deal, there are better aftermarket options than the OEM Pro suspension.

    I had the standard Eibachs on my 17. I wanted something a little softer on the Limited. The fox take offs are $600 which I didn’t think was bad. I’m looking for a lower lift (1” or so) and better onroad ride. I might look at the 6112s again first
