#1JUANstunna Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Dude do you have a job? In three days you have refab the whole front end and it's looking sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
So Cal Suspension Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I'm going to pull my foot out of my mouth. Everything is coming together VERY well. Zilla is correct. You want your lower shock mount as close to the wheel as possible. I would set it in from the spindle about 4 inches, and optimum shock angle is roughly 35 degrees. Do us all a favor, though. Go start a photobucket account, and upload the original pictures. They will be big. I'm super interested in this project and I'll be watching closely for the finished product.

xtream Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I have tried texting u all weekend and either your or my phone is a piece of sh!t ( gonna say mine ). Now u forced me to make a hq forum to see the progress. Looks bad a$$ as man cant wait to see it in person. Favorite quote of the thread so far = ("I'm going to pull my foot out of my mouth. Everything is coming together VERY well") Have you got shocks comming yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Cal Suspension Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Looks good man. Only suggestion I have is to move your lower shock mount in. It looks like in it's current position you're going to lose a little ride height, and drop-out. It's hard to tell without having the bike here to take measurements, but the shock angle looks about right. Ride height is the only issue I see as of now.
