Re: M25 meet for grainstorm 2

BTT your welcome to meet at mine mate, but that means coming into London, there will be several lads leaving from south of London, duffy/tony and so on, maybe a meet with them might be easier. this is where we meet last time, Thurrock services...... http://motorwayservicesonline.co.uk/Map:Thurrock ...

Re: shocks that physically fit the storm that could be rebui

I'm on the assumption he wants to put a shorter shock in and make a new clevis pin to accommodate that fact?

That's the point I'm making that the shock length should be the same and the clevis not changed to make up for the shortfall in length.

It helps greatly when approaching speed cameras :wink: see if I can beat Carls super light weight one :think: Not mine, GL_...

Re: shocks that physically fit the storm that could be rebui

Well a shorter shock isnt a problem as the difference can be taken up with a modified clevis at the top. Whats more important is the travel or stroke of the shock is at least as much as standard firestorm shock so full suspension travel is possible. The rest is then surely just a revalving of the i...
