This is special fome which doesent absorb wather.
The fome is used for non-swimers. It floats on the water!
It is straped in black Ducktape.

What about spring pre-load?

I know some guys fill the exhaust with water, blocking one end, and then place it in the freezer - the expanding nature of water when it freezes pushes out the "dents". But keep a careful eye on the pipe in the freezer - don't just leave it there or else it may split.
You may want to put cable ties wrapping around the pipe to prevent the pipe from over expanding in the freezer. Woop ! I hope it's not too late.

AHA! I see new rims in the background Are those body supports you've got there on the rear shock tower? The things that are jutting out horizontally at the back?


Looks like he used a very short spring on the brake side of the linkage too like what Pyramid / Goldfinger suggested.
