LaegerEliminator Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) In this last picture, is the swinger fully extended, no load on it or the springs? Edited June 15, 2015 by LaegerEliminator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abe Posted June 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 You are correct laeger fully suspended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtydownunder Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I got that kit aswell and my rear shox always felt odd. Like it was only using the bottom half of the travel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abe Posted June 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 So your first spring collapsed very easy ddu ? I can pretty much collapse the first spring by just pushing firmly down on the seat, compression setting didn't seem to make much to any difference in this.

m671054 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Just fyi you need to recharge the nitrogen now. They dont have alot of volume. Checking it like you did changed it alot. Not your issue but charge before riding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99michael Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 What did you order your shocks for. (Weight ,style) Like Dave said it seems to be zps style.. I bought that kit for mx 150lb on my fireballs with long travel rear link.. Fronts are quad rate with the zero preload spring on top. looks pretty similar to what your rear looks like.. My rear is only a single rate though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abe Posted June 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Xc/trail 250lb, now starts the fat ass jokes lol just ordered the stage three kit that ygr was offering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abe Posted June 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 After some Google searches looks like I may have ended up with a zps or no preload shock for the rear but has regular dual rates up front. I have absolutely no clues about suspension. I don't know if the two will work correctly being only one end is standard and the other is zps. Having some doubts about how good of a deal that $1000 was now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtydownunder Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 yeh mine is almost compressed. and if i adjusted the pre load, to gain that 1" it would be completely compressed. i was wrong about the half travel thing, been a while since i looked at the bike haha. but there is about 1" of free travel up, which is all that helper spring.

do-work-son Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 I got the stage three kit from YGR and only have a single rate spring on the rear. Did you upgrade your to a dual rate or did it just come like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
