Default DRM FX3 coil over kit question

I wrote them a email but no reply so I'll ask here.

I have the fx3 suspension and want to know how the shocks mount to their coil over kit.

I guess it's different than exotic muscle coil over kit because they only sell the kit with shocks or you have to send your shocks to them to get "fitted" for the coil over.

So all i'm asking is the drm setup all "plug n play" or not with three fx3 kit without shocks?

My shocks are new so no need to replace them.

You should only have to have your shocks grooved for the snap-ring that the sleeve sits on. You could measure the diameter of your "tube" and confirm the ID of their "sleeve" to confirm fit. I would think you're going to find 50mm. The diameter of the "top hat" is 10mm where the rod passes through for the mount. Measure your shock just above the polished rod and confirm that's what you find there. My measurements are from a DRM kit I believe with conventional shocks - no FX3.

Confirm that with theirs and you should be set.
