What size is my shock

richa

I want to set sag and I'm looking to follow the suggested Sag Measurements.

Shock Travel 15% Sag (Firm) 20% Sag (Plush)
1.00 in./25mm 0.15 in./3.7mm 0.20 in./5.0mm
1.25 in./32mm 0.19 in./4.8mm 0.25 in./6.4mm
1.50 in./38mm 0.23 in./5.7mm 0.30 in./7.6mm
1.75 in./44mm 0.27 in./6.6mm 0.35 in./8.8mm
2.00 in./51mm 0.30 in./7.6mm 0.40 in./10.2mm
2.25 in./57mm 0.34 in./8.5mm 0.45 in./11.4mm
2.50 in./64mm 0.40 in./9.6mm 0.50 in./12.8mm

How do I find out what my Fox Float CTD Adjust Factory BV shock travel is? Or where do you measure from/to?

Per the specs my shock travel 100mm / length is 184/44 - how do these fit with the above?

If I've got this right...

100mm max travel of rear axel
184mm shock overall length (eye-to-eye)
44mm max stroke

In which case, if I go for 15-20% sag, I'll be looking for 6.6mm-8.8mm ?

Your shock is 184 and the stroke is 44.

What you measure dies not matter. So use the mounting bolts. Measure fully open. Measure full closed. Ad air till you get the % sag you want.
