just got a ti spring for my vanilla 3.25 stroke. got the kitchen scales out and saved myself 300g! tidy saving.

push tune for it next, or do i buy a DHX 5.0 and get that tuned to the max?

I have a question. I read that the second number on a fox spring is not the same as other springs. It said that Fox uses the shock's bind while everyone else uses maximum stroke. It said that a 3.25 fox spring is a 3.00 inch spring from any other company. They also said you can run a longer stroke spring if it fits, but not a shorter. Is this all true?

yeah it all seems right. you can run a longer stroke spring if it fits in the shock body (like if you have a 2.75 shock you can use a 3.00 spring.

It was a Bit$h to get the Ti spring for the RC4. Im not sure how easy it would be for a older model DHX? Might be kinda difficult

the older dhx's are relatively easy to get springs for, they are the same inside diameter as manitiou and a bunch of other shocks so putting a manitou ti spring on a dhx will go
