After speaking with Darren, he has located 4 pairs of Fox Air Shox which may have prompted his decision to sell them. For more information, phone Darren directly on 0425 797 029. The longest one is 17.5 inch long. They are all usable and workable.

Where in Brisbane could you get a Fox Airshock serviced - replace seals.

By the way, this question has nothing to do with the shocks in the picture above from Darren.

I went through this dilemma last year building my 1981 KLX250. 17.5 inch shocks aren't long enough, you need 18 inch. I bought a pair of progressive brand from the US and modified them to get the correct ride height, I also run them upside down to get enough clearance at the top mount. They now work fine for Vinduro stuff.
FOX Shocks wont fit. The other option are to have the original units rebuilt, unfortunately I sold mine. Ohlins are an option but very expensive.

KLX with Fox airs fitted. Top mounts look taller. I got a set with taller top mounts and am pretty sure Fox did make them. 17.5" ar real easy to find but the shorter lengths which i am after are much harder to find. You can make 17.5 into 18 with 1/2" longer top or bottom mounts. Top mounts in this photo look 1/2" taller to me.

There you go. I guess you can make them work with a bit of moding: )
