Needing some advice on shocks. What shocks are better the fox floats or the gytr. Wanting to replace the front shocks on my RX1. Nytro shocks 17.5" eye to eye will work and came across a couple deals. A set of fox floats from a 08 nytro and a set of GYTR from a 09 nytro both for the same price and both in real nice shape. Only thing is the floats don't come with the pump and they were rebuilt and revalved last year. What is the cost of a pump. Looking for a smoother ride on the washboard bumps on the trails and rough lakes. Both are 17.5" eye to eye.

Thanks for the info. I settled on the GYTR's. They were take offs from a 09 Nytro at 150 miles and I picked them up for $200 but I will have to replace one of the compression adjustment knobs. I think it will be a good improvement over the stock 03 RX1 shocks.
