What's up guys,
This is probably as simple as it sounds but the logic of the situation is just no clicking with me.
Side by side as complete struts, the air struts compress down a little more than the old B&G RS2's, yet it looks as if I gained another 2" of lift w/the air struts completely aired out.
What I'm most confused about is how side by side(with the air struts pushed down), they were about the same height, the air struts even went a little lower actually.
The most OBVIOUS difference in the struts is the differnce in the length of where the knuckle bolts to the actual strut:
I'm trying to decide what to attack to gain the two inches back:
My horrendously huge strut mounts(which I'd have to figuring out a way to mount a bearing set-up being the hardest issue):
I'm thinking of chopping the top hat and making it completely flat to gain about another 1" of drop.
Tape measure in MM...all I could find in the Spanish workshop.
Here's the before and afermath:
Coils...then air
Anyone have any ideas I can elimnate that mount completely and know of a place to get some decent bearings? Or should I just fab up new mounting brackets to sit the strut down a little lower? Thanks for any input on this...a little rushed at work at the moment, hope the message is clear.
I also need to find a way to address the not having any kind of camber adjustments clearly
