Default FX3 Conversion

I have a 92 with a busted FX3 system. Would it work to put on 91 shocks with a 91 control module? I know the problem was a 92 up shock valve only rotated 90 degrees, but if you changed the controller, it should work, right?

Yes, if you change out the controller, it will work.

the later model hasa 90 degree movement, whereas the early models had 16-180 degrees of rotation. Cuts adjustment time down..... whoopty doo.
