In trying to hurry up, I saved the shocks for the last. One mistake I made rushing through was to snap the hex ball into the shock cap BACKWARDS from what is in the "hint". This leads to me having NO play between the shock cap and tower. I don't think it's affecting the tweak (THANK GOODNESS IT WAS RIGHT THE FIRST TIME).

I tried to snap the ball back out but it wasn't happening. Have you guys ever got them out, or do I need to replace the cap and ball hex?? (Hint:KT) Other than that, just waiting on my p-dub bumper and then I'll mount the body.

ONE other thng. I was looking at some set-up sheets, and they use droop marked as 5 on the hudy gage. When I measure where they note (bottom of rear hub), to get about 1.5mm up travel, my rear droop is 1 on the gage. Long ways off, anyone know what they mean by showing "5".
Oh no you not running an Xray now to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
