Accutune Fox 2.5's

Looking to get these shocks from Accutune when the funds allow. Would those who have them chime in on their experiences so far and what compression settings they prefer for the best ride loaded and unloaded?

Thanks guys.

I just got mine installed last week. Still haven't towed with them yet. So far I have found the best settings to be
Front: Low Speed Compression (Gold) = 6, High Speed Compression (Blue) = 4
Rear: Low Speed Compression (Gold) = 5, High Speed Compression (Blue) = 4


I was told by Ryan at Accutune that the low speed compression effects overall ride quality and that the high speed would be for off-road mostly. For reference the low speed has 10 clicks of adjustment and the high speed has 12.

Looks good! Did you go with Fox's universal reservoir mount?

No ended up using Carli's reservoir mounts.

Just got my set from Accutune. Did you drop the nitrogen pressure to change the configuration of the hoses? I bought the carli resi mounts as well and would rather use those. Should have had them change the hoses before they shipped, but wasn't really thinking.

Yes you will have to discharge them to adjust the fittings. Mine were installed by a shop so I'm not 100% sure of the specifics but that's what they told me.

They don't come with swivel fittings? My old Fox's did. Use two wrenches, loosen the nut and swivel the fitting. A little bit of oil leaked out but that was it
