Sadly AFAIK both go body up. maybe buy so tubular or D44 turrets to see them. Also can be found on Fb, Ytube, Insta & Twitter @4WDSouthwest

How do people find the ride and handling characteristics of the Fox dampers? Also, what can you compare them with? I.e. what else have you tried?
OP- as others have said; body up to help the seals live longer 🤓 2014 Keswick Utility 2.2 |

I wrote a few lines on mine in the first response to this thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic57966.html?highlight=fox
I have nothing to benchmark them against other than knackered OE dampers but I'm very pleased with mine |

A monotube damper can be fitted either way. Anyway, it is better to keep the body shock away from stones and debris. Puma 110" SW
