Martsmithy Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 What springs you putting on? Your original rear shocks might fail.. Be careful:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattbagshaw Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 they are 40mm springs loads of people have said the should be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashh Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) They need to be tight on the strut... Obviously the piston turns so its nigh on impossible to over tighten, but you don't want a loose spring.Edit; 40 will be fine on standard shocks Edited January 10, 2013 by Ashh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt123roll Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 What springs you putting on? Your original rear shocks might fail.. Be careful:)They won't fail unless there already leaking and for the price of a used shock it's nothing to worry about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
