Fox 2.5 DSCs Height Settings

New Member. New Offroad 4x4 and now new Foxs. So I had the Fox 2.5 DSCs and 2.0 installed on the rear with a 3 leaf deaver AAL. Did not have the spanner tool and the guy who worked on it did not have a punch so it is OOB. I have a crazy rake now, 25" in the rear. Question is if I have about 1" of thread showing and am still under 22" to the hub, what should I adjust the thread to for starters to get 23 to 23.5 " and to avoid over preloading?

Oh and do y'all recommend the 1/4" spacer on the driver's side for lean?

 

8 turns on the collar is about equal to 1 inch of lift so to get to 23", you'd need 8 turns, 23.5" needs 12 turns. DO NOT USE A SPACER for the lean! You have adjustable shocks, use them to correct the lean. I added 3 turns on the preload on the driver side to fix the lean.

FYI spanner tool is worthless and doesn't work with remote reservoir shocks since the hose gets in the way. I used a ground down 8 inch 1/4 ratchet extension.

 

Cool. I am going to get it on a lift later this week. Hope to get rid of the hot wheels Taco Ride!!!
