    I was looking at revalving my bump stops, anyone seen a Fox bump stop valve stack? The compression side alone has 14 shims :eek:

    They have different numbers for telling. Mine is 25/75 or something.
    Which Is softer than anything on their chart and the slowest rebound on the chart. Someone is fuggin with me I think

    you're never going to get to properly use that new rear suspension while running those

    :confused:
    Wat? Fox valve shims range from .006" to .020" thick.
    WTF is 25/75? Are you going off what someone told you or that's what you measured?

    My point was whatever is scribbled on the outside doesn't mean that's what's inside.

    Those numbers correspond to a certain stack according to fox's chart

    25 doesn't exist though, at least on the chart I have

    75 rebound is three .012" and three .015
    or 3 .012" and 2 .015" if its a 2.0

    You normally don't bother revalving bump stops add more pressure, or revalve your shocks

    Any downsides to mounting my bump can far enough off the frame that I don't have to cut my bed? I checked tire clearance already and it seems like it'll fit

    Yeah I soon as I looked at them I thought the same thing. I think what I really need is bypasses but before I go any faster I need a cage

    But back to rear shocks here is my rear valving layout. I need to get a mic for thicknesses, rebound on the left
