The SX is limited. 200X forks are the best companion to the rear pogo stick. 250R and 350X front ends are also a bolt on item.

If your blowing fork seals - your bushing may be worn out, your putting air in them which is not advised or the upper leg is bent and or pitted.

I have jumped an SX as big as anyone else and didn't have a fork seal blowing issue. Your 175 and I was as much as 225lbs and riding on an MX track with mine......
