Zwiser Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 I got a set of blaster works shocks set up for my weight. I put them one but im wondering since the shee is heavier would it bottom out going over bumps and jumps on the trail? Quote
muggzy Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 (edited) I got a set of blaster works shocks set up for my weight. I put them one but im wondering since the shee is heavier would it bottom out going over bumps and jumps on the trail? They're an inch shorter, so right away, you've lowered your front end and reduced the travel. I've got a set of banshee works shocks that I bought for my blaster and they cause the ball joints to bottom out 'cause they're 1" too long. Haven't ridden on them b/c of that. They're Dual rate with internal rez. Wanna trade? Edited May 10, 2011 by muggzy Quote
So Cal Suspension Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 They're Dual rate with internal rez. Just FYI, unless you had an IFP custom made, there's no such thing as a works shock with an internal reservoir. I dontt know if maybe the previous owner of your shocks told you that or not, but I'd give you about a grand for those shocks right now if they really have an internal reservoir. Because I've spent about 1200 bucks so far designing ifp's for works steelers. Still working on getting the oil displacement right. Quote

These are Works Dual Rate Stealers with the gas charge valve on the shock body as opposed to the gas res in a separate canister. I didn't mean to mis represent what I have, I'm certainly no shock expert. That's what I have. Just got home from work. I'll get pics up tomorrow. Quote

You had me intrigued for a second... lol. Quote
