- 2014 Viper xtx, Thunder products clutch kit
when I picked up my used viper xtx last week it didn't come with the pump for the fox floats. Where is the best place to get one? What is a good starting point for the pressures front and rear? I'm 195 in gear and maybe 60/40 on off trail. Moderately aggressive but not a crazy racer. Thanks! Everyone has been so helpful to me on this site! I greased the jack shaft and driveshaft bearings today thanks to this site!

I always check eBay first to see if someone is selling a good used one cheap!..
Any dealer should have a pump. I think under $30. I would start right about 60 psi in front shocks.

Harley shop has same pump for Harley shocks at a fraction of price Fox pump was when I looked.
XTX has very weak front skid shock spring from factory, if it has not been changed sled will feel heavy in the front and a lot of effort to steer. Fix is quick and easy, put a 160 pound or 180 pound spring in to replace the 110 pound in there.
Yours may already have been changed, mine stock no way could I lift skis off ground by hand, after new spring I can grab the bumper and lift both skis off the ground with some effort.
