Hi to everybody, I am new here on forum. I wish to ask which Fox shock absorbers i have to buy for my racing Jimny for +3" springs. I am looking for 2.0 smooth body fox shocks with reservoirs. I suppose fwd shocks must be about 7" travelling and rear 9" travelling. Please correct me if i am wrong. If you have any experience about it please share with me... every suggestion is very welcome. Thanks in advance

He sold them to me :-)

Awaiting mr postman for them at the moment.

They are the 2.0 body, remote reservoir and have 8" travel to work with +3" springs. I dont know much more about them than that until they arrive. These are fronts only. I need to look more into the rear options, but expect them to be similar spec except with an eye at both ends. Also looking at hydraulic bump stops & limit straps for obvious reasons.

Tom sent me some useful links about setting them up (messing about with shims, oil and nitrogen). I will be reporting back once ive had a fiddle about ;-)...

So fwd shocks are 8" and probably rear must be 9". Do you have Fox code or number of that shocks?

If they're going on Ulysses and you're planning getting rid of the 2" lift give me a shout ;)
