Fox live valve upgrades

[gordo]

Maybe a stupid question but can you add a reservoir to the oem live valve?

 

[tltoronto]

To the fronts? You cannot. Look at the design on the oem, the shock shaft is on the top of the body, versus aftermarket where the body is above the shock shaft and allowing a reservoir to be mounted to the body. What is an interesting question is wether the new remote reservoir front live valves are compatible with your system.

Why wouldn't they be?

For what it's worth, the OEM front shocks (Live/Non Live) have a small reservoir inside...there is a internal floating piston separating the oil from the nitrigen..so they are not Emulsion shocks...

you would have to run a hose from the body on the oem shock, which is down mounted to the control arm. I suppose you could fandangle a reservoir to that but durability woud be in question.
