shock setup
inspect your shock for any visible damage.
if oil is leaking or you notice any damage to
the surfaces or seals, please contact the Fox
racing shox service center for repair at 800.

shock set-up can fluctuate greatly based on
the rider. the set-up guide is intended as a
base line to get the rider started. experiment
with your settings to find the set-up that
works best for you.

01. bottom-out resistance
02. boost valve
03. sag
the bottom-out adjuster has four turns of
adjustment. this adjustment controls the
bottoming resistance of the shock, meaning it
controls the compression on the final part of
the shocks stroke. the adjuster can be turned
by inserting a 3mm allen key into one of the
holes around the perimeter of the dial. For more
resistance turn the dial clockwise. For less
resistance turn the dial counter-clockwise.
the Dhx rC4 has an air pressure range of 125-
200 psi, and it must be pressurized. the boost
valve allows for seamless transition from small
bumps to big drop bottom-outs. For more bottom
out control add air pressure in 10 to 15 pound
increments to a maximum of 200 psi. For less
bottom out control decrease the air pressure to a
minimum of 125 psi.
with a friend supporting the bike, stand on the
pedals and allow your body weight to compress
the shock. remain on the bike have your friend
measure the eye to eye length of the shock.
subtract this measurement from the static
eye to eye of the shock (9.5”) to get your sag
measurement in inches. Divide this number by
the shocks stroke (3”) to get your sag percentage.
the 303 wC rides best at 25-30% sag.
04. low speeD compression
the lsC adjuster has an 18 click range of
adjustment that is controlled with the blue dial
located on the piggyback. the lsC adjuster
primarily affects the compression damping during
slow speed suspension movements. For more
low speed damping turn the dial clockwise. For
less low speed damping turn the dial counter-
clockwise.
