I have a pair of 2011 floats which were set to 120mm and i have now changed to 140mm, just need to move the spacer on the rod.

Thanks gamo. I did have a look on the Fox website here...

[url= http://service.foxracingshox.com/consumers/index.htm ]QuickTech forks > Changing 32 mm FLOAT & F-Series Fork Travel[/url]

[i]"All 32 mm FLOAT and F-Series forks can be reduced to 80 mm travel by adding travel spacers. The only FLOAT or F-Series fork models that can be INCREASED in travel by removing travel spacers, for all model years, are the following:

F29 80 mm (can be extended to 100 mm maximum travel)
831 100 mm (can be extended to 120 mm maximum travel)"[/i]

So no mention of 140 > 120...is there a more up-to-date page that I've missed?

Cheers,

Heh...maybe I should read a bit more carefully!

[i]"The only FLOAT or F-Series fork models that can be [b]INCREASED[/b]"[/i]

So looks like I can derease OK. Anyone know what the 150 will space down to?

You should be able to space them down to 100mm and possibly lower.
I've done 36's down to about 110mm and I believe dirt jumpers/4x have ran them down to 80mm.
