I called FOX today, was told my 10" travel shocks should come from the factory with 260cc, and I could add up to 30cc more oil for a total of 290cc. I drained them after work and found they had 280cc, which included the 70cc I had previously added. So they came low from the factory(210cc).  Thanks for the help.




when you have drained the n2 out of the shocks in the past has a small amount of oil shot out too? has this happened a few times? the reason I ask is a little bit of oil to you might actually be more than you think, especially if it has happened a few times or so. this would account for low factory level you spoke of.

Yes when releasing the N2 a few times a little oil did come out, doubt it was much more than a cc. I took a close look at my shocks the other day and noticed that the bearing caps were a little marred like someone had been into them prior to me getting the buggy, so possible they weren't brand new.
