Some mods that the P/O made.

Can't find any info on this shock, it's a FOX gas/oil with a 900lbs spring, don't know what kind of oil, how much,
how much air. Once I get it off I'll post some better pics.http://fjowners.com/gallery/2/1704_12_07_11_4_22_14.jpeg

The front brake calipers are Lockheed mono blocks, not having much luck finding out about them either.

The shock looks like an older fox TC (twin clicker). If so you will want to run 10wt shock oil (I prefer Maxima hwt racing shock fluid). The air reservoir is charged with 300psi of nitrogen. Later fox TC's use a lighter 5wt oil and 225 lbs of pressure.

Lindemnn engineering sells a nice rebuild kit for the Fox TC that includes most of the parts necessary for a rebuild (shaft bushing is sold seperately) for around 35bucks. Fox has a how to in their archived manuals online. It is for the second generation shocks, but other than the pressure and oil its the same for all TC's.

Thanks Fan, it took a while but I found the archives, is there anyway to tell 1st generation from 2nd?

The lower Yoke on the older models was usually built up from steel. Later shocks had a cast aluminum part. Other clues are a red or blue reservoir (later models are a ti color) and the style of fittings on the line.
