Are you still running these shocks? Had any issues?

A video update on how well these have worked out for you since you have installed them would be nice.

Mine are being installed now…. Edit. 3 months later. I love them. Adjustable is niiiiice. Super smooth ride!

I’ve installed the vertex all around in my Tacoma 2019, I have icons all around in my wife 2016 and let me tell you, now that I have a comparison point I can tell you the vertex are worth it every single penny

Thanks Dex, another great video! Always looking forward to them!Those VERTEX are friggin massive! I just put Rubicon Express ones, as part of their 3.5" lift package, and have been happy with their performance.

Thanks for the video. Sweet ride! How do they compare to the fox 2.0 ride, travel, etc

I’m trying to to this shocks on my Tacoma, the model for Tacoma, I got the regulars with 3” lift right, if I put this it a big diferente and how smooth it feel ?

So, after 5 months on the jeep, what do you think? Hope all is well with you, haven't uploaded in a while.

How are they holding up?

Man i don’t know if i wanna buy these Rc shocks since radflo makes them but branded RC, Or fox 2.5 dscs

I have these installed. I cant figure out what the settings really do. The instructions and videos say "tune them". OK.... is setting one the most stiff and eight the least, OR... is eight the stiffest? I really can't tell. with 8 settings each, I would think setting 4 would be like normal and each of the ends would be significantly different. I can't tell

What engine you running ?

What is a good setting for street?

I am curious how these compare. I almost got these. 😎

Hey Dex, I see your front Vertex shocks didn't come with (or you didn't install) the upper relocation brackets that are currently included with the Rough Country Kit. Do you have any issues with your shock body interfering with anything without the relocation brackets..? Thanks!

@andrewlh619

if you can avoid the bracket, DO NOT USE IT. Both sides snapped as i was driving on a regular dirt road (or possibly even before). I havent off roaded very hard, just dirt roads and they already broke, not even 500 miles on them yet. Completely dissatisfied. My jeep is currently at the shop cuz when the bracket snapped, the bugger nut pulled through the shock tower and the shock fell out and got stuck in the wheel well. I was stuck in the middle of nowhere with no reception or help. Jeeps currently in the shop and im waiting to hear how they plan to fix it

Did you re-gear your Jeep to accommodate the larger tires? I couldn’t find a video on your channel about it.

I think that’s for the JL with remote reservoir. This is JK and the reservoir is piggy backed.

AD do you still have you Fox ones? Can I have them?

What are VERTEX shocks say like, asphalt , no lift, going too fast over (hitting) a speed bump at the mall.... Like butter?..

Props to RC for stepping up their shock game but at that price point they're pretty much competing with Falcon, in fact they're pricier than Falcon & Falcon has the game on smash right now. Convincing people to drop $1600 and roll the dice on them is gonna be a task, even if they are better. They wouldve been better off giving them a their own different identity and just calling them Vertex w/o the RC and create distance from RC association...just like Teraflex did with the Falcons.

Sad thing is, even if they did perform better than Fox or Falcons, for all we know they could be on par with King but Nobody would take them serious & roll the dice, especially at that price point. Prior to these their most expensive shock was $50. For RC to ask $400 a shock, I'm almost inclined to think they must be good.

I'm guessing RC wants to shed the low end quality they've always had, but they have a long, long ways to go. The shocks might be worth the price , but the RC perception is not. Put the Fox 2.0 back on. You are above RC even if they pay you.

RC should've rebranded them like Teraflex did with Falcons. They gave Falcons their own identity. Seperate website, social media & brand management. Rough Country should've dropped the RC branding & just left it as Vertex. Even if they were awesome shocks, Nobody's going to take these serious, especially at that price point.

The true comparison would be the fox 2.5 shocks with reservoir not the 2.0 fox shocks

dude, just look at the extended / compressed lengths on the RC shocks. SKIP

For that price you can find the whole lift and the vertex shocks, plus the front driveline. Thats about what i paid for the whole lift. For my wife's 19 JL. They ride nice if your running big tires and not KFC bucket wheels. They do extend out far. Dang my wife wheels harder then this guy 😂😂😂

Rough country is supposed to be cheap garbage.....yeah I'll take fox bilsteins then Kings everyday before I ever take a rough country shock.....I legit went superlift with 5100s and I'd have went zone fox shocks also before I even paid 1k for a rough country lift
