Hi!
Partly I was assuming correctly for the 4T if bleed shims were existing... All of a sudden it was confirmed by a Friend that the 4Ts use the same valving as the 2Ts. And this also corresponds to another thread in thumpertalk for this fork, discussed last year... Only the springs are much firmer (0.48s from 0.42) and they have 10ml less oil than the 2Ts in the outer chamber (due to the difference in springs?), at 370ml, 30ml more than what I had. Below the new stacks I created yesterday. Slightly stiffer because of the thinner base shims. I did not have enough 11 - 0.2s, but I do not think it will affect negatively the heavier 4T... Also I decided to decrease the float on the midvalve compared to the 2T setting.

11 - 0.2The normal push down test in the garage showed much improved initial plushness. I will start today with 20 clicks out for compression and rebound and 2 turns in for the PFP (per Marzocchi manual). Because of the bleed added I will start closing the comp clickers if it feels too soft and then try the PFP. I have to repeat that my previous much stiffer valving was not bad, at least for my level, for a mixture of technical trails, including sand whoops... I would say it was a very good hare scrambles setting (or, dry and fast enduro...) Probably it was helping that I had less oil in the outer chambers (but maybe not because I was experiencing blow throughs...). Very curious to see how it goes today... Hopefully I did not screw up the fork 2 days before a race. I definitely do not have the energy to revalve again tonight..
