just curiose if anyone has any experience with the fox air 2.0? Im mostly concerned about seals, all the terrain I run is mud or snow. Hows the ride on a -15c day compared to +25c? any feedback would be great. (lookin at the 16" if it matters) :icon_cheers:

ok, i need to know if these are even capable of holding up a ranger. I know they are right close to max limit but will they work?

Being that your going with a fullsize driveline, you will be right at the limit. Given the range of temperature we see your gonna have to compensate with a change in pressure, and retune for each season basically.....don't forget the need for limit straps and probably a sway bar on the street. I'd rather see a 2.5" or a coilover under a ranger, but if you really wanna go bucks up and have a really easy to tune and forget system go with a set of ORI's.

These wouldn't happen to be Denver's shocks would they?

well i bought em today from a guy named dave hubert. ive seen a few others on here with air shocks but cant seem to get any solid feedback. I would love to step up to 2.5s but on a tight budget. got em now so ill make em work! theres a good thread on pirate "billavista" where a guy put them on his 4750lbs buggy and had to run higher pressure but said they were better than the other 2 coil setups and his old leaf setup.
