All Pro FOX 2.5 issue's

[Bodegas]

So AllPro... Is this reservoir location a design flaw or effed up install? Why is there not enough hose? I better not get this set-up in the mail. Waiting 3 months for this is fugazzi.

probably wont help you with your 2.5's and different coil compression, but with front fox 2.0's I had to make 20 turns on the adjustment ring to achieve a level lift of the front to the back - hope you get a good result.

mbdevri if i do have problems d u mind if i contact u on this, like which way do i turn the wrench and also what does a full turn consist of, is it touching one side of the fender and a 180 to the other side? also did you have any problems with the back? mostllikly i hope not since all you really have to do is put in the springs but i have heard of people saying that there wheel was touching the Res.

just so many questions on this kit,

for future reference you need 5/16 pin punches to adjust these...1/4 are way to small and will tear up the collars... pics to come

The 2.0 shocks come direct to us from Fox, then we install our coils and assemble the kit with wrenches and upper mounts. The 2.5" come preassembled and boxed from Fox with Tacoma res mounts - if sold to a Tacoma customer they go out untouched - if going to an FJ customer the silver Tacoma res mounts are removed (which dont fit the FJ, they interfere with the FJ body mount) and black FJ res mounts are packed in (which put the res up at an angle through the body mount bracket where thel clear.

Looking at the pictures & comparing them to our install on Jons FJ we see the problem - your bracket is mounted UNDER the sway bar relocation bracket AND the reservoir is slid back too far in the bracket. Remove the bolts holding the reservoir & sway bar bracket and put the reservoir bracket directly against the frame, THEN the sway bar relocation spacer BELOW it - this will raise the res bracket, and when you slide the reservoirs all the way forward it will relieve the angle that is causing the kink. I will post up some pictures of the correct mounting procedure in just a little bit
