Please help, just got the new DH X2 2021 currently feels grest on my Levo 2020, yes it’s a 210x 55mm wich came with 2 fox coils SLS 650lb/ 2.65/67mm & Steel coil 650lb/2.30 lates is the one i’m using but SLS was suposed to be 61mm (it’s a full 1.25” longer and noticeable heavier than regular steel version so no SLS advantage here).
Can’t sent it back after 3 months delay on delivery but cante be sure about it, no info to confirm this SLS will fit with out coil bound so tough will better ask here.
Thanks for any info

Looks like you have the wrong sls coil spring length. Fox website has a chart of all the coil spring length and weight variations

it might be a two person task, but it you compress the coil a little there may be a way to install on shock. Not sure how the pre load setting will be

Be aware rumors are Fox no longer sells shocks for Turbo Levo applications (i.e. if you tell them it's a Levo, they'll say "no"). They are failing and Fox says it's because the shaft can't handle it. Not surprising given it's only 9mm.

Bigtuna00, sure you rerering to pre 2020/21
DH x 2 since they made a revision so actual DH’s comes with stronger chromed finish shaft not the kashima type as they use too.
if got extra info please post updates here
Ride safe
