ah yea..preload higher... if that means shortened the spring to make more tension.



exactly how much??? did not get a chance to measure the back before.
whatever the x10 link shortens it on the shorter of the 2 holes. Around 2 "


They didn't even have aftermarket links back then last year early April 08
my dealer experimented with the x 10 link. I took it back to set the preload higher because it would bottom out. ( they have the right tool not the silly one in the kit). I would not have lowered it if I did not have had to.

Now I only bottom out when I hit something excessive at speed or going down stairs...
