elie boone Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 On Spax dampers 9" will do fine for normal use, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazio Posted April 14, 2018 Author Share Posted April 14, 2018 Thanks for that, 9 inches is what I have....though I do feel 8 inches would be more appropriate easier to fit, you have to compress the 9 inch ones to get on the shocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elie boone Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 On a Spax front damper with adjustable platform you are at the end of the tread if you use a 8" spring and have about 12cm under the chassis, fine for track but a bit low for the road. i have made bespoke spring compressor from an old jack that works a treat.

Bricol Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 I like that!I rely on crossed fingers and a set of sykes pickavant compressors with lumps of failed Metro rear engine mount welded to the back of them . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
