Fox980-02-014-A Fox-2.0 Air Shock Non-CoilOver 4.5" Travel w/ 1.25" Shaft #980-02-014-A I am wondering if anyone has tried to fit these shocks on the front of a FL400 with stock arms and stock brackets? Here is a link with collapsed and extended lengths for various shock sizes… http://www.polyperformance.com/Fox-2-0-Air-Shock I am not sure what the length specs are for the stock front FL400 shock. I know the Yoda arm kit calls for the 5.5’’ travel shocks #980-02-015-A and using upper shock mounting brackets. Has anyone tried THESE shocks and brackets with stock lower arms? I’m helping Westecbuilder with a project, changing to fox airs on all 4 corners and still using the stock front arms. Thanks. |

Two hundred and thirty five dollars for one four inch stroke shock I am not knocking the product just the price. Boys were are in the wrong line of work -- all of us. |

If you think that's bad, go price what Works want's for their shocks. Please be sitting when you do the search... LOL! Dark Angel just picked up a pair of these for the price of one. I believe it was a screw up on the vendor's part, I think they meant to say a piece but the ad said for a pair. I hope they don't screw him on the set! Rand |

That was the first suspension mod I made on my Pilot, its been so long ago I forget the exact details, I changed my upper mounts to adjustable mounts because at the time I was not sure what I wanted to do and wanted adjustability, I fabricated all my own spacers, I used 1/2" bolts and drilled out the lower holes in the arms. I love them I used them with my +2 arms too, using the stock arms I went from bottoming out the front suspension 500 times a trip to never bottoming. the improvement was so great the rear shocks felt like they needed something so I replaced them too. |

Think I used the 4.5" stroke, its been so long I cant remember for sure, if you check the over all length I think it will be self explanatory. I think I have most the FOX Air shox info concentrated on these pages? http://www.pilotodyssey.com/fox-home.htm viewtopic.php?f=29&t=7080 Wish FOX made a bolt on kit for the stock arms I really like these shocks. |
