Yes, but there is a solution. Alex posted about this on his FB page a few weeks ago. I can't get to it right now but basically, use your turnbuckle wrench to limit how far you push the shock shaft...

In addition to adding a ton of weight to the rear of the T4, the ARS also changed the rear shock angle at the A-arm. That mounting point had to move inward some to make room for the hub. The...
