Been studying on it myself. Everyone I've talked to says they're worth every penny.

I will sell you my set of Foxy's for a $1000.00 plus shipping they have about 250 miles on them plus or minus some I put them on for my Colorado trip.
I will be up grading to Elka 5 if these sell, if not I will keep them.

That's a good price on them...

So I was like all of you. I couldn't justify or decide. Finally, I bit the bullet and just bought fronts. It was a week or two before I really had the chance to run them on a trail where they would be noticed. After running a rough rocky trail at a good clip I went home and order rears that night. So here it is.. it depends on your riding style and terrain. If you run the rough stuff and in an area where you can get some speed on it. ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT! If you use yours as a grocery getter or ride in a place where you don't get over 10mph... you probably won't see the benefits for the $$.

Thanks JTW
At $1000 its over a dollar a mile loss.

This may be a dumb question but do Fox shocks have any kind of factory warranty??

 

[jelmail2000]

I put them on and the whole family has been much happier now that we have them. I would recommend them.

Good lord you will like the Stage 5's and the Foxes will sell. Get Snuffs spec's and send them in with your order, spot on!

What do you not like about them and what's the advantage of the elkas vs the fox's?

Pretty sure of it. I don't have a le to verify though.

 

[Smitty335]

Rebound, high & low speed compression adjustments. Foxes, soft, medium and hard,what does that change? But over twice the price? I'm very happy with twice the price!

Not that I am aware of.
Anybody?

What Smitty said

around the Farm I use the softest setting 1 they ride better then stock and bottom out about the same as the stock ones, out in Colorado 2 in the front and setting 3 in the rear I always had rear passengers

With the high and low speed setting the Elka's have I hope to get a wider range of terrain out of them with having to adjust on them

You can pick them up in person hopefully at Rush Springs ride I am still tentatively planning to make it.

And don't forget rebound, Rocks faster rebound, sandy whoops slower rebound, Probably the most important adjustment after you get you high and low speed compression dialed in. And when I say high/low speed, thats shock shaft travel speed, it's a oxy moron, don't ask me why!

I'd be interested in your rears only if somebody else wants the fronts
