I would but you can get it to work without you just better have a spare in case it snags something. 2.depends on sprocket size I added 5 for a 14 in front and 4 for a 13 in front. 3. I ran a stock shock for a bit it worked fine but it was a recently recharged and rebuilt shock set to the hardest setting . So it depends on how soft you can handle it being.

mofoka Posted June 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 so maybe on the brake line... will I have much luck re valving the shock or is it necessary to re spring too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireHead Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 so maybe on the brake line... will I have much luck re valving the shock or is it necessary to re spring too. *The shock is mostly about the the spring, not the valving. To do it 100% correct, you would need to do both, but with a +2" arm, a spring will get you most of the way there if you have to do anything at all. *Your brake line should reach. *The chain depends on what gearing you are running, but 6 links will cover nearly anything possible (you can always knock a few off).
