P1000m5 WTB: Fox red 1000-5 shock springs

[GRANITE]

Got me some front Fox shocks for my 5 seater. They are the 3 seater versions...I wanna get the 5 seater springs if anybody has them at good price. TIA

I have a pair of Eibach 250lb single rate springs in red. They are 2.5" ID 14" long. This is what a lot of guys upgrade to. They were $155 new and I ran them 1 weekend on my wife's wildcat. I could do $125 shipped

I have a complete set, zero miles on them, not sure what shipping would cost though but we could probably work something out.

I would do $200 plus shipping.

Will these aftermarket springs make ride alot different than the stock Fox shocks on the rear? Someone said the 3 seater shock springs are ok but soft.

These are going to give you a pretty soft ride without coil bind if you add a little preload. This is a good spring choice for a little extra ride height. Most guys would say this is a good choice if you don't have a lot of extra payload. If you read the fox shock threads on here you'll see a good portion of the guys swap to these springs from the Honda spec progressive rate springs. @Remington and @P1K5Dave come to mind as guys with build threads that include spring upgrades. These are also the spring rate on my Elkas

You may find you want to upgrade to single rate rear springs down the road for similar reasons

Why else do you think some of us have factory springs that are unused 😉 we upgraded to better springs.

I just purchased the Viper coils from daves offroad and paid $270 shipped for all 4. I will hopefully install them in a couple weeks.

P1000m5 - Fox shocks: Guidance on a good purchase I made

I got my new shocks today. They are pristine and I don't think I would have second guessed them if someone said they were brand new. I will upload some photos of them. They were very well packaged. Three were in a sealed bag and 1 was in an opened bag. The pictures I will upload is of the one...
