Hey new guy in TX here. I bought an 18 in March. Picked up the Fox 3.0’s last week and went to try them out with zero info provided by Fox. I was hoping to share my findings with everyone and hoping you could do the same. Anyone else have the same setup?

Front shocks (Grey and Orange knobs) - Start all the way open (lefty loosey) and turn right one click.

Rear shocks (two orange knobs) - start all the way compressed (righty tighty) and turn back left 10 clicks.

Rear shocks (two black knobs) - start all the way compressed (right tighty) and turn back left 16 clicks.

This is what I received from a friend he called “Cadillac Mode”. It’s great for daily but terrible off-road.

This was my setting from last weekend. There was a ton of washboard areas and small jumps. The low speed was good (not great) and the high speed was a little stiff. I will be back out Saturday and will improve.

Starting from all the way loose;

Front HS (Gray) Tighten 4 clicks
Front LS (Orange) tighten 8 clicks

Rear Long tube black tighten 12 clicks
Short Tube black tighten 12 clicks

Orange Long tighten 20 clicks
Orange Short tighten 22 clicks

No idea that’s all I was given along with a explanation of how the suspension works.

Got it thank you. I can try those settings both ways and see how it reacts best. I'm hoping there are enough people with the Fox's to have good input for different conditions.

I called fox and they gave me a good middle ground. I have only had the truck for a few months and haven’t truly tuned the suspension yet.

Here are my current settings. Just finding what I like by trial and error. The track setting were for pretty rough terrain and jumps. I still didn’t like where they were set but I will update in the next few weeks as I go back out.

Daily trial:
Starting from all the way loose
Rear: Black rebound long (cooler) 13 in
Black short 8
Orange long 12
Short 10

Front shocks (Grey and Orange knobs) - Start all the way open (lefty loosey) and turn right one click. (To first click or half turn)

Texplex Settings

High Speed(gray) starting all the way out (loose) tighten 8 clicks.

Low speed (Orange): tighten 8 clicks

Rear

Long tube black tighten 18
Short black tighten 16

Orange long 20
Orange short 22
