Just replaced the seals in my fox float shock £17 from mojo for the kit sure it was 15 squid last year and 12 the year before. Maby treading on holy ground by asking this but is there a cheaper alternative? My sons and i all run fox floats and it mounts up changing 3 sets of seals.

Not that I know of.
but tell me what would you think reasonable to pay,
if say £15 you were happy, then a saving of £6/year on seals dosent really add up to a lot or am I being unreasonable

Maby £17 is ok for a hand full of rubber rings but seemed a lot when i bought 3 sets together. I recently got a pack of 12 top quality nitrile o rings for my spray gun for under £2 posted so the cost of the material obviously isn't very much.

but then MOJO have to sperate the seals out into packs, keep them on a shelf, employ staff to answer questions/take orders, post them etc etc etc.

If they're making that much money why not order them from elswhere and compete with MOJO?

thats what i was thinking, but thought if someone else had already done it, it would save me bagging up all those o-rings into tiny zip-loc bags! 😕
