Could be as simple as simply changing the seal kit. Up until Thursday I never used the Enduro seals when I replaced the seals on any of the fox forks I have owned, I always used the fox seals. Well replaced the seals Thursday and there were not any of the fox seals on hand, but there was enduro. Needless to say, the fork feels smoother than it ever has with the fox seals.

I think the newer Fox forks have better seals that are similar to the Enduro.

I'd imagine you changed the oil too. That could explain the improved feel.

Used to use the fox stuff, but this time around used motorex.
