Definitely 32 somthings, there's a lockout lever and rebound appears to be adjustable so I'd say you are right on those bits.

Does it not say "float" or "van" on the bridge? Photos are a bit cryptic aren't they? You maybe buying these and these are the only pictures you have to go on?

Doesn't say Float - but there is an F (in one of the pics) which is what I think the older (2008) floats had.

And under the blue cap there is a air valve so definitely air

These ones?

http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/fs-fox-f120-32-float-rl-2008

Float 32 2008 - not sure on travel - maybe F120's? As doof says they are not RLC and so must be RL's.

Are you sure they are 2008 as they have material removed on the uppers, didn't they do that on the later forks late 2009/ 2010?

F120 RL or F100 RL

The Floats don't have the "paired down" crown.

(lipseal & foxyrider - The "paired down" crown was introduced on "F series" forks long before 2010).

That would make sense then given the F on one of the stanchions also, so F100 RL?

And the F series are lighter than floats?

Yes the "F Series" is the "XC" version of the 32mm platform although weight difference is fairly negligible.

In terms of servicing the model ("F Series" or "Float") makes no difference. The fork year can make a difference to the damping servicing.

They look like 2008 Fox 32 F100 or F120

Well there is a rebound dial and a lockout switch so I would say they were RL.
