87BRBanshee Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Ok so I want to get a +2 j-arm setup for the front, will my stock shocks work or will i need new shocks? Same with the swinger i want to do like a +3 or +4, will the stock shock work or will i need to invest in some aftermarket ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eldreder Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Stock front shocks can't be revalved, I would talk to Matt at scss. I've never dealt with him but have heard a lot of people who are happy with his work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87BRBanshee Posted October 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 it depends on your weight and riding style. if you are light, your stock rear might still be good with a +4. but i would suggest sending it to matt, that faggot know how to massage the shock. as for the front, your stock ones will work, but most likely be way too soft. you can find a cheap set of used works or elkas, and have matt massage those as well. matt did my shocks, he made them work well and made them look nice, PC springs and polished bodies. Well im pretty damn light haha i weigh about 115lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
