Hey Leith,

Out of interest, what did the reset springs cost? Mine are chassis slapping now........not kooowul. Guess I need shocks too but the springs are a bit too straight (because of the blocks).
150 im pretty sure

my shocks bottom out now cos of how low it is, so im researching shorter shocks and mine should be sweet. you don't know of any do ya chris?

Oh really, maybe we just have tired shocks. I didn;t notice at first but only the last few times I've heard audible bangs when I went over big bumps.

I reckon shorter shocks would be easier to find. Not sure it you could make up a custom perch (on the leaf spring bottom plate) for the shock to mount to maybe drop it down an inch or more to get that little bit more preset.
yea mine dont have the travel, i brought brand new peddars shocks (180) and they need another 1.5 - 2 inchs of travel.

its for 1200's but i assume they would still work, im looking into bilstein shocks and if i can find the right length and travel i can get custom damper and damper rebound which will be sweet plus my boss is a bilstein dealer so that means discount to woopwoop haha
