I just bought a set of Fox 2.0 shocks off Amazon and noticed that in the description it says shock boots not included and available separate. I don't see anything available by Fox. What does everyone use the OEM shock protectors, or is there another option?

Can't help you on the boots, but let us know how you like the shocks; I have them saved on my Amazon wish list.

Installed yesterday, love them!! Hit my favorite local dirt trail for high speed adrenalin run and they ate it up! I always was pretty impressed with how well the OEM shocks with the Offroad package performed, but they were a bit mushy. I'm not sure how much of that is the way they were designed vs. having 75K on them when I bought mine. They did still have a lot of life in them when I removed them. These Fox 2.0's improved control with quick response, slightly stiffer and much better control taking corners at high speeds off road. Perfect ride on asphalt as well. I'm looking forward to seeing how they do on all the various types of trails around here, but so far couldn't be happier!

I’ve had mine for a few years now and still really like them. They have a nice on and off-road feel.

Mine have boots, although I got them from a local, so I'm not sure the numbers. I can do some digging for any numbers on them. Another alternative that I've used before is from FEAL Suspension. They do coilovers and stuff for cars, but they offer shock covers similar to Outerwears for the dirtbike/ATV/SxS guys.

Awesome! My stock Off-Road package shocks are shot (a bit over 144K mi.); if I try to push it on the dirt, I get massive wheelhop as soon as I get hard on the brakes. Cornering turns into hop-a-long "go straight ahead" even though the tires are turned! BTW, I grew up in Beaumont, currently live right next door in Banning; what local dirt trail are you referring to? Old Idylwild Rd, by any chance?
