I'm getting ready to replace my rear shocks and springs (110lb.) Where would the best position for the perch be?

What size wheels can I fit? Group: Members Posts: 4,645 Joined: 5-April 05 From: Scottsdale, AZ Member No.: 3,881 Region Association: Southwest Region |
Ditto for me. 3rd from the last meaning third from the bottom. |

no... different springs are different lengths... I had to play with mine... I started with them on the 2nd from bottom, had to move up 2 just to keep the tire from scraping... |
