I see a lot of OR/ORP owners change out their suspension pretty quickly to improve road handling and ride quality (reducing brake dive, etc), so I'm curious if Pro owners have the same issues and end up doing the same, or if the Pro suspension is already substantially better for road use and the only reason to change it is if you plan for more extreme rock crawling and such.
I'm also trying to ascertain whether there is a stock ride height difference between the Pro's suspension and the other 4x4-oriented trim levels like the Off Road/ ORP.
I read somewhere that the Pro rides about an inch higher but haven't been able to verify that anywhere. On the Fox product page, they creatively use to the "2.5" number in the same sentence as ride height, but careful examination appears to indicate the 2.5" is the valve body diameter, not a measurement related to the ride height. So what is the height difference, if any?
Is the Pro's Fox suspension componentry any more capable/articulate for trail rides, rock crawling, or overlanding than an OR/ORP model, or is it just designed more for absorbing bumps at speed when doing things like desert runs, sort of like the Fox suspension in the Ford Raptor?
I haven't found much info out there regarding the difference other than the Pro suspension allegedly rides better on the street. I'm planning to test drive the Pro and an Off-Road Premium back to back to determine ride quality/preference.
p.s., I think I originally posted this in the wrong forum section, as it was getting views but not replies. Maybe this is the right spot, being 5th Gen dedicated
