My gut instinct says it'll work.  The air bump gets held like that in any application and it doesn't slide in and out of the mount.  A Fox air shock body is stronger than a Walker but weaker than a SAW.  And who knows, maybe if Jimmy had somehting like that on his Walker fortifying his shock body like that it wouldn't have blown out like it did.  That load is spread out so far though even with that bracket that it won't hurt it, IMO.  The impact that would be required to damage that shock body would be so hard that other things like mounting brackets and chassis tubes would bend also.


I have SAWs and on my front shocks I have something kind of like that over the schrader valve just to protect it.  It only goes about 3" or so along the entire length fo the shock body.  I've rolled directly on it several times and it has never damaged the shock bodies.  If it hasn't that won't.
