After reading that fox now use 4wt motorex oil instead of the 5wt Teflon oil in the damper side of the 38s. I decided to do an oil change and put the 4wt in.
Upon disassembly I had a lot of shims fall out of the top damper assembly 😭
Turns out the 38s aren't full of magic and fairy dust after all 🤔
Lots of internet searching and it's looking like my 2021 forks got fitted with the 2024 shim kit when I sent them off for warranty problem a while ago.
Anyway there back together now but feck knows if they work or not as not riding for a while.
