Hey all...Picking up anf FK05 today and have some shock questions. I have heard of some using the AE spring perches. Will this work? also, I know the stock lower ball end hits the 28mm foam tires. Will the AE lower ball end with screw work in it's place? I have a ton of leftover AE parts as well as springs and would like to use them if possible. Any info would be great!

Rob,
Removing and re-mounting the seals can be done.
You just have to make sure you do the following (included in the instructions):* Flatten out any bends in the seal carefully before re-mounting them
* Put them back in exactly as they came out, to include both the correct side of the bearing to mount each one on AND the correct side of the seal that faces out
* Use the flat part of your fore finger and thumb (the center of your finger prints) to press them back in and DO NOT use any tools to *push* them back in

If you really want PRS gears, and they are very good, like I mentioned in my previous post, you can order the 116t off of PRS's website.
