Shock valving

Offroad VW based vehicles have problems/insights all their own. Not to mention the knowledge gained in VW durability.

Shock valving

Post by mlrailguy »

I'm running Fox 2" coil overs all around on my sandrail. The rear have 12" of travel. The coils are 400lb lower and 250lb upper. It just hops all over the place when going through the whoops. Is this too stiff valving or too soft? Also tends to bottom out on hard landings.

Probably need more midrange compression, you'll end up near the limit of what you can run on a single 2" shock on the comp side for running whoops and jumps.
