FOX QS3 Shocks

As stated in one of my previous post, I ordered the qs3 shocks for our pioneer. I installed them over the weekend but the shocks did not come with a spanner wrench to adjust them. Is there a specific one or size I need?

I got mine from shock therapy, these are the 2.0 shock when you look for one.

By chance did you notice any increase in overall height after installing the Fox QS3 shocks versus the stock shocks?

I changed out the springs before setting the preload but I’d say yes even with them shipped without much preload set.

I honestly did not check height before and after but I do not believe it was much if any but the springs also do not have much preload on them either

My issue is my garage door height only having an inch clearance now with stock shocks. Guess I should’ve asked my question before ordering the Fox shocks. I’ll make it work.
Thank you for the replies.

You’ll be fine if you don’t crank down the preload, it isn’t a big diff unless you really compress the springs for preload.

You can always air down your tires to go in and out.
