Anyone know where i can buy Fox foam rings, crush washers, and oil? Seen compatable stuff on ebay but would rather Fox own brand parts.

You can buy them as a full service kit from loads of places, but you invariably don't need new wiper seals or the other stuff, so it's terrible value for money. Buying just the crush washers and foam rings in bulk doesn't seem to be an option.

So compatible stuff may be your only option.

"tick" is just so I can track this thread as I'm looking for the same info.

Having said that, I've ordered some ZTTO foam rings from Ali-express. For oil, I use Fox 20wt gold or Motorex Supergliss 100. For damper oil, I avoid Teflon and use Motorex 2.5wt fork oil or Maxima 85/150. They are both close enough to 15cSt@40°C to not upset anything.

There is a chart here

which compares the viscosity of various fork oils, so you can find a match to Fox. Or you could just buy the one they recommend, I don't remember it being super expensive, and a bottle will last you for ages.

Any dealer that has an account with Silverfish Uk will be able to help you. The parts and lube  are not expensive and you have the reassurance that they will be made to the original specifications.
