ADAPTOR
SHORT SHOCK
:
Shock is built WITHOUT adaptor.
Front mount is REARWARD.
Improves steering response, quicker direction changes.
LONG SHOCK
:
Shock is built WITH adaptor.
Front mount is FORWARD.
Improves driveability over bumps, improves on-power traction.
MORE SHOCK ANGLE
Thinner shim in front, thicker shim in rear
Makes the damping more progressive and increases on-power steering. Recommended for
high-traction conditions when you need to free up the rear.
LESS SHOCK ANGLE
Thicker shim in front, thinner shim in rear
Makes the damping more linear. Increases stability, decreases on-power steering.
Recommended for low- to medium-traction conditions.
The overall length of the shock absorber affects the amount of droop. To adjust, thread the ball-joint on or off
the bottom spring cap or adapter.
