Seems to me somethings stuck up your rear end.

If your feeling upto it, id like to see what pump is in your fox. Im curious if the original owner who did that sway put in a stock pump or something better

Dropping the tank is very easy too. You just need a few extra jack stands, un-bolt the 2 gas tank straps and lower the tank using a floor jack. Easy work

Thanks guys, enix and dreamer once again. I'm all but new to this scene and just looking for help. I spoke with bubba and in a sense, he's just a straight forward guy on his own level. Hey we all have to start somewhere.

Dreamer, I definitely plan on doing all the seals once it's pulled and I too would like to see what's in there. Will definitely let you guys know the outcome.
