Shock absorbers FOX or Sachs

Sachs Shock absorbers

Well, it's home and boy oh boy does it feel tight as a drum ????????

It's firmer than the Sachs/Eibach combo; but not stupidly - you still feel the bumps, lumps and potholes as I did before, but there's no 'crashyness' over them; it just rides over them now

Pros: firmer, no crashyness
Cons: still feel bumps
Vehicle: BMW

Had a mystery clunk from my front end on a 21TRD pro. Drove me crazy and the dealership near me thought I was. Took it to another shop and they found my fox shocks lost the nitrogen charge that sits on the oil. New shocks, fixed.

Pros: new shocks, fixed
Cons: lost nitrogen charge
Mileage: 40000 km

As for shocks, Fox is the best route for offroad shocks. They use higher quality parts and fluids than anyone else in the industry.

Pros: higher quality parts

I think stiff sway bars and good tires make any car feel sporty, but sporty isn\u2019t always directly related to fun - anyone who has coilovers that are way too stiff can attest to this.

Pros: cornering more confident
Cons: coilovers too stiff

Sachs shocks with Eibach pro-kit springs all round - if your E39 is a petrol straight 6, you need Sachs 556834 front and Sachs 170857 rears with the relevant Eibach pro-kit springs for your engine

Pros: improved handling, better ride
Vehicle: BMW
Part number: 556834

I changed everything in my suspension, including new shocks and front springs. Compared to what it was it was a huge improvement. I used Sachs shocks (m sport).

Pros: huge improvement

I had a 2019 Ranger Raptor. Sold it exactly after 3 years. A week before warranty expires, all 4 shocks nagleak. Napansin ko kasi pag umakyat ako sa bed may squeak sounds kaya pinacheck ko na. Walang marunong magrepair sa Philippines ng Fox shocks kaya full replacement yun which costs around 200k.

Cons: shocks leaked
Vehicle: Ford Ranger

I have this creaking noise since I installed new Sachs shocks & top mounts. \nIt's dead silent on sunny days or when the temperature outside is above 15c. \nAny ideas since the mechanic says it's just bad quality rubber on top mounts and the only solution is to go with a Lemforder top mount.

Pros: silent on sunny days
Cons: creaking noise, bad quality
