Fox float suggested psi?

[Beasy13]

I wanna know how many psi's riders have in their front fox floats? Im 200 pounds is there a suggested spec for weight or is it preference?

The base setting is 90 psi if I remember correctly. I run 65psi in mine and ride mostly mountains.
The pressure is usually a personal preference, with riding/snow conditions being the main factor.
I usually start out soft. Then if I feel the front end starting to bottom out, adjust the air pressure/valving from there.

I started with 55 and am running 50 right now.

I also will be experimenting with the floats this season. My only experience with these is on my friends Cat F7. He liked 70 psi and I thought it was too much. Of course that is a much lighter sled than the nose heavy Nytro but I thought it would be a good starting point for me. The book suggests 75 psi. If shaddow44 is running 50 psi I think I will be changing after the first mile.

Download the XLS file from the first post in this thread I started a couple of years ago. You'll see the setups that some guys are running.

95 with sway bar removed last season. I'm trying 110 this season.

are your psi numbers when the sled is on the ground or in the air?

 

[yamahas]

I have a phazer,

I run at 55, i weigh 170 and ride fairly aggressively. I set the psi with the front end raised off the ground. This will ensure even pressure to keep the sled stable.

I run 100psi when the skis are off the ground w/ float x's

 

[tapex_07]

Last year I ran 75psi in the air, I am 190 and ride hard. Im trying 65 this year in the deep, maybe less. In my Tapex I ran 95 psi.

 

[09nytro]

I'm like Dimebag no sway bar @ 95 psi with skis in the air or with shocks off sled on bench

get revavled to float 2 specs and ride around 60 to 70.

 

[jedwards89]

I have mine at 70 which stand up to the hard riding on tug hill with the float X's.

What's the advantage to running without swaybar?
