fox airshox/parts
« on: June 14, 2008, 12:18:29 pm »
Wanted - Fox air shoxs (later dual pressure design) ideally a set of the 14.75” long ones, part number 99-1475.
I will also accept parts from other shocks or odd shocks. I mainly require bodies and shafts. I prefer the bodies to be pretty good but I don’t care what the shafts are like as long as they are repairable. I prefer bodies and shafts that have had no previous modifications.

I require any bodies from 14.75” shocks or longer
And 2 shafts from any shocks 14.75” or longer. Ideally 2 shafts from a set of 14.75” or 15.50” but shafts from any other shocks longer than 14.75” will be fine. They also do not have to match. They can be different length shafts.

You can email me at [email protected] or send me a PM
Wanted - 1978 TS185 frame or frame&motor. Frame # TS1852-24007 up to TS1852-39022

Yeah seen those. Would have been good if they did not have shaved bodies. Not much else on ebay at the moment. Too long is better than too short anyway. I want a 14.75 set or a longer set to make that length. I’ve got all the specs etc and Thor Lawson is helping me out with stuff but I really would like 2 more bodies and shafts.

Did this get resolved?  I am just having mine rebuilt with new bodies and nuts.  All the body lengths are available and nuts to suit.  In stock now.
Bodies are aerospace grade alloy that has been hard anodised, the colour is beautiful, like gun metal grey.  Nuts are equally as stunning.

(Ti lock nuts for the end of the rod also available)

So if you or anyone else is in a bind and need bodies (3 lengths available) and / or nuts, help is available.  (and of course seal kits, bladders etc which is all widely available anyway)

(Would post a pic, if only I knew how.  One day I will get that sorted.....)

They are in England.  Bodies are £105 each, Nuts are £65 each.  limited supply, available now, all plus postage.  If you buy a pair of bodies and the nuts to go with them, ever so slighly less.  Will ask Firko to stick up a pic as I still havent worked out how to do it...
