Fox Reservoir Bracket FIX

Sorry, what a pain. This isn't the first time I've read about snug/tight shock bushings. I believe Chloe Kuo had some issues with that as well in her installation videos.

I bought these same shocks a few years back and the updated resi mounting brackets from Accutune, but I never got around to installing them. I don't know what differences (if any) there are between Fox's revised bracket design and Accutune's.

Maybe Accutune can respond with a solution?

 

yea I seen Chloe’s video after I ordered the PE’s of her having the same issue in the rears.

From the pics accutunes look to keep the resi a little less slanted then the fox when comparing to my picture I posted. My guess smaller shop/ they took the time and made a replacement for the original issue bracket that they are probably perfect. Form fit function you can make the fox bracket work but far from satisfactory imo. Gonna order the accutune today and call them tomorrow just to confirm solid fitment. Once I have there’s mounted I’ll post an update on the results.

 

So I received the accutune updated reservoir mounts yesterday, went to install today and they will not work either, I had called accutune this past Tuesday after I ordered the mounts to confirm fitment and was told that these brackets would work and correct my issue, definitely better bottle placement but it’s like the reservoir hose is not long enough to allow them to sit flush on the mounts and clamp properly. Not sure if Fox changed the length of the hose or what but it is not working. So then said screw it and just put the fox bracket back in and determined thats just the way they will have to be even though it seems like a failed attempt to fix the original issue by Fox. I then checked everything over and noticed the passenger side UCA is contacting the top reservoir clamp, this was a concern originally with how close the reservoirs were mounted to the UCA. I’m completely annoyed with Fox at the moment, it’s like they don’t test fitment and just say good enough. I’m gonna contact Fox tomorrow, if Accutune sees this let me know if there’s some adjustment I need to do to make the bottle fit your mount but at the moment it’s not working.

I attached pictures of the accutune mount and as far as I can get the reservoir back where I can’t get it to sit flush into the lower mounting position. I also posted pictures of the UCA contacting the reservoir mount on the passenger side, this is after a week of driving with this setup on the roads.
