Depends on the arch of your springs. Idealy, the shackle would be maxed out before the spring begins to invert to prevent the spring from getting damaged.
huh?
my springs don't have much arch. they are probably worn out
just look at my rears, they are the completely wrong, the fronts are about the right angle
here are some pic of the current progress
more. tried to get some pictures of the pinion and rear shackle angles.
put a new coil on that thing. make it run much better more like fast yet smooth.
The coolant recovery tank is awesome :gigem:
any have some good tech for 9 inch disk brake conversions?
if you turn down the axle flange you can fit a front rotor over itQuote:
