Long Travel BS Thread

On one of the leaky SAWs I'm at fault because I indexed the shock cap so I may of damaged the o-ring on the cap or it may not be tight enough. The other bypass I'm unaware of what happened yet, seems like the o-ring between the reservoir body and threaded cap may of failed. I need to take them apart either way to open up a free bleed so I'll address both issues at the same time.

 

They ride stiffer? That makes no sense. doesn't it just depend what you valve it to ?...

 

yep.

i think "in his case" he probably wont be tuning his suspension so that could be why DSM said kings over foxs because the valving in them is a bit more mellow for a softer suspension setup.
reason i say he probably wont be tuning his suspension is just because hes mid travel and i know 99% of those folks dont touch the valving.

 

And here on Maui, we don't have any areas that we can go wide open like whoops and stuff.

Mostly low speed crawling stuff. So soft is better

 

I had fox for a couple months.

Rode like shit, practically gave them away

 

All the guys back east in the salt have good luck with the wear on kings

 

Shit. I'll have to wait till the end of December for my forced induction and maybe new suspension.

 

Hahahahhahahhhahah.
My stomach hurts from laughing

 

I bought them from MR.Grimm
He hated the way they rode and so did I

 

All depends on valving

You can choose your spring rate

LOL

 

No, not the double face palm hahahaha

 

If i could find one with 20 face palms i would have used it

 

I believe you

 

all of that.........


so you gave away your shocks basically when they just needed a revalve.............

 

It would've cost more to send out for a rebuild then what I paid for them. And with nothing to run in the mean time, that wasn't an option. I need my truck every day.

I'm on Maui, we have no one in the state that can do suspension stuff for us and sending them to the mainland take long and cost some $$$$
