fox air pressure recommendations

[sketch96]

New to these fox float shocks. What are people finding is a good air pressure setup? I am 6'1 and approx 255lbs dressed! What about the limiter straps? I am riding a 2014 m8000 162.


Thanks

You will want to run 150lbs in the back shock and up front start with 70lbs.

are you setting air pressure outside or in the shop?

Do it outside and make sure you take the weight off the shocks before you pump them up

Correct!

By taking the weight off the shocks do you just put the sled resting on the side body panels?

Yup or have a buddy lift the back end, or sled lift/jack on the back works also.

Get rid of the rear Float shock in the skid frame and put a coil over rear shock in it's place. I swapped mine from my SnoPro out for the shock out of a standard model M8. Totally cured the Float sag issue and transfers a lot better as well. I know a lot of other guys that have done the same thing with nothing but positive results.

I would pump the fronts to 100 then slowly let air out during the day. With your height and weight I would doubt you would go lower than 65. Just see what's comfortable for you. Letting a little air out is easier than taking weight off the ski and pumping it up. Been there done that!!
