Low Gwen!


Yay!
She is now low!
2 splines inner on the front, 1 outer on the back.
The front took us 30 mins.. the rear took 4 hours... 3 of which were on one side before we figured out how to get the sping plate back on... :crazy:

But this is the end result.. and i'm pretty damn happy. Gotta get the front tyres whitewalled still.
Only rubs full lock if going over a bump. :thumb

Lookin' good


Hey Jo that is a nice change.

Amazed that those big fat rears still fit under those guards. What size tyres are you running on the back.

I agree that some whitewalls on the front will set it off nicely. How she go on th mountain run?

are you still running the original front lower bumpstops ?

if so get another pair of type3 front uppers , mount them in place of the og lowers
should be enough considering you didnt go down much
see how that rides :)

ah was sure i didnt have a problem running those till i went 3 inner+ :p
next step is to take off the nob the bumpstop sits on , or as i have seen alot of ppl do just cut the whole upper/lower bumpstop mount ears off the front end ( but i would start by just taking the lower nob off :) )
