Hi,
Looking for a company willing to re-gas some Fox dampers, happy to pay for the service. Ideally near Towcester but happy to travel.

It's not cost-effective for me to have the equipment.

Nitron are in Witney, but I doubt they'd be interested in supporting their competition. You might be able to talk them into it.

Thank you for the suggestions, I'll try BG

It doesn't look like Nitron have any products like these Fox: 12" travel, 2" bore 😉 so they might be plan B

IG Racing in Finedon advertises as rebuilding dampers but I have not used them personally:

BG get a Thumbs up from me - re-gassed the set of four this afternoon. Friendly service and happy to explain the intricacies of the unusual shim stack used in my dampers.

A friend also recommended IG of Finedon so I've two potential sources if I do more work on these dampers.

Frustratingly I'd overcome one hurdle to getting the vehicle running again only to find that the RH rear spring had split right on the last coil. If only I'd removed them last weekend :-(
