Factory Race series 3.0’s - Non Live valve(2017/2018)

[criminal]

Howdy yall! New here, but wanted to see if anyone on here has any lessons learned or helpful feedback on the Non Live Valve Fox Factory 3.0s. I just recently had these installed on my 2017 SCREW. Specifically, have you messed with any of the damping settings? Is custom valving needed? Any feedback helps. I have about 150 miles on the Deaver/3.0 set up but so far happy with the feel, no clue what the shop set the shocks at.

So we have these also on a buddy of mines and there is really no way to move the front resivor far enough that you dont get rub on the coils with the hoses.

Anyone have a fix for this, as you dont want that rubbing thorugh? maybe wrap it with another type of sacrificial hose?

Noticed this right away. I have a decent bit of wrapping hoses I’m going to do. Will probably use a HDPE tape or wrap of some sort. Some of the hoses need some spacers too to keep them from rubbing together or against different places here and there.

we ripped up a top hat out west , ripped the shock right out of the top hat mount and luckly it stayed in the hat but was just bouning around beating into the bottom of the hat.. Not good.

So we had to put in Fox 3.0's early one AM at RPG after visitng Deaver cause the rear springs were well worn too.

One day of heavy offroading and there was quite a bit of wear on the hose. Adjusted the resivours farther out and still have some rubbing but looking for solutions.

Thank you, super helpful! 50ft might have been overkill but there’s some other places I have things rubbing adding the Deavers. It will come in handy.

As I understand it you “close” these, bottom them out essentially, then back out. Looks like some of these are from full open? I’m reading that right?
