Podium X Spring Question

phreak · #1 (**permalink**) 03-10-2010, 10:53 AM

I just picked a podium x and was wondering if i needed a heavier spring.

the spring is -> 0900-225-300

with gear, i'm about 230ish. will i need a new spring?

i know i need to get it revalved(currently valved for stock linkage) but wanted to know whether or not a heavier spring would be needed.

anyone have a ballpark as to what i should expect to pay for a revalve and heavier spring?

thx

I'm guessing around 200.00 for a spring and revalve, maybe more.
That spring is to light.

If its a Gen1 that spring may work.
if its a Gen2 probably need a 375 spring.

Last time I bought a spring from Fox it was $50 (a little over a year ago)

My son weighs just under 160 geared up and runs pro-am and A classes and has a 325 spring.

I would agree it is too light

Does it matter if it is dual rate or not, and remote resi or not?
Mine is not dual rate and has the 300 spring. I am about 200Lb in full gear.
