Are you looking to go air or coil if you went fox?
You can have the kyb’s revalved and new springs out on that work for you and your riding.

sorry should have been more specific ! coil overs not a huge fan of air

Alright well kinda comes down to money and what you are trying to get out of it. Personally I think fox makes a better shock. Comparing the fox to a revalved and sprung kyb I like the way the fox rode. The kyb’s leaves a lot to be desired and you can definitely benefit from just getting them set up for you as well. With fox you get the lock out function in the rear shock which is a huge plus. If it was me fox all day.

for sure just was hearing mixed reviews guys saying the fox shocks are about just as good as the KYB on the free ride ! deff gonna try the fox shocks I think and see how they are , highly doubt that they aren't better then the piggy back kybs

The big thing is skidoo has to build a shock for everyone so many different ways to ride these sleds it’s a huge job and it’s not going to be perfect for everyone. The fox shocks that’s Toms shocks sell’s is set up for the each riders weight and valved for your style of riding I’ve been impressed with my fronts I got from them.

The whole reason to buy a Freeride is the shocks, they're awesome shocks. Why would you want to change them?
