[QUOTE="rpf500, post: 428016, member: 6870"] Here is some info FOX sent me just now........ Assuming 5/8” or 7/8” shaft diameter (1.25” Air Shock is totally different). Factory pressure and recommendation is 200 psi when fully extended but when tuning this can vary in either direction quite a bit depending upon specific variables. What kind of car? Is it paired with a bypass? What valving is in this shock? Is there a specific reason you are inquiring (ie: affecting ride height or damping deficiency)? When paired with a bypass on the front of a light rear engine buggy with soft neutral valving in the shock I run as low as 50psi if higher pressure is affecting my ride height and or compliance over small bumps. Opposite end of the spectrum: when only shock per wheel, heavily valved, on a heavy trail/rock/expedition style rig will gas this shock upwards of 300 psi. Under most normal circumstances 150 is usually appropriate for softer valving and 200 appropriate to medium-heavy valving. Remember, we are always checking/adding/subtracting gas pressure with suspension fully extended (starting pressure is what we adjust). Feel free to call or respond with any further questions or concerns. Joe Moore Service / Race Department - Offroad Division Truck | SUV | Offroad Race jmoore@ridefox.com [/QUOTE]
