Anyone know if I need to do this mod to fit a fox DHX air or a smaller shock like monarch or float to a demo7?

If you end up doing this let me know how it goes. Would like to try it on my wife's Demo 7.

I´m searching for a air sock in second hand like the dhx air or even the float or monarch. The Idea is to put the bike with15,5kg (with that shock and light tires) just to ride some AM/Soft freeride trails (clean trails). But who knows it would handle more big and rough stuff too.
I will keep the dhx coil anyway.

Yeah that's a good idea. I just want to lighten up my wife's bike a little for her.

Ya, I'm still alive. Still running the Roco. After years of abuse the rear shock eyelet has ovalized so now there is play in the shock. Typically you would just replace the DU bushing but since Specialized designed the frame without one I need to replace the shaft of the shock.
