P1000 Rough Country Shocks

[ChrisCrockett]

What shocks did you have before? Fox? The "regular" rear shocks are self leveling not adjustable as far as I know..........I don't know much.....😂😂

Just factory shocks on the 2016 p1k3. I will take a picture tonight.

My machine bottoms out so easily on the front end. I have the JEI front bumper, Warn 55 Axon winch, Dual battery setup, etc so a lot of extra weight up front. Even if these just have a bit stiffer spring and some actual damping, they would be well worth the money. I'm not a high speed rider, I just don't want to bottom out on every little bump

These will solve that problem. Plus you can adjust the preload of the spring to raise the ride height. At this point the $700 I spent for them has been worth it.

Have you had time to test them out? How's the ride compared to the factory shocks?

The brief ride I did was a huge improvement over the 6 year old factory shocks. I will have better feedback after the first weekend of October.

🤔.....think we need to get you out there sooner so we can get a real world review 😉 c'mon!! I read up on these and if they are what they seem it sure would fit the bill 👍

After you set your pre load where you like it I would be interested in seeing some pictures of how the shock coils have compressed.

Well if I can get the chores done I will try to get out next weekend.

I am going to take pics as it sits and once I set the preload.

Honestly, some cheep monroe Autozone shocks will do that 😂
Hopfully you get this rig out into some Good sloppy rocky terrain sh!t so we all know if you still have your fillings. That will be a good test.

I’ve never been a Rough Country fan when it comes to shocks. I hope they work well but I would be surprised.

I wonder how these compare to new stock shocks on 2021 deluxe? Let us know how you like them after more riding!

First pic is before setting ride height/ preload. Second pic is after setting.
looks like the first weekend of October is when I will put it they it’s paces.

Those look really good. I have a feeling those will make some nice oe replacements

They look good. Very interesting to see how they do.

Likewise. I could probably do these for 1/3 to 1/2 the price of some of my other plans. I wonder.

Nice looking shocks, I to will be interested to see how you like them after you get some miles on em.......
By the way, you have some rocks laying in your front skid and a dirty brake fluid cap.......

If you only knew the places I drive. It mainly lives at my deer lease which is in the West Texas desert and it is 90% rock, cedar and cactus.

Lmao yes it bothers me too but I cant see it from the drivers seat.
