J-Arms/Swinger

[87BRBanshee]

Ok so I want to get a +2 j-arm setup for the front, will my stock shocks work or will i need new shocks? Same with the swinger i want to do like a +3 or +4, will the stock shock work or will i need to invest in some aftermarket ones?

They will "work" just not well at all

So Longer is what I need?

[eldreder]

No, they just need to be set up for longer arms

And how do i do that?

Stock front shocks can't be revalved, I would talk to Matt at scss. I've never dealt with him but have heard a lot of people who are happy with his work

I would suggest aftermarket fronts, but Matt at SoCal can build your rear to work just fine.

Ok, sweet thanks for the info

[87BRBanshee]

it depends on your weight and riding style. if you are light, your stock rear might still be good with a +4. but i would suggest sending it to matt, that faggot know how to massage the shock.

 

as for the front, your stock ones will work, but most likely be way too soft. you can find a cheap set of used works or elkas, and have matt massage those as well.

 

 

matt did my shocks, he made them work well and made them look nice, PC springs and polished bodies.

 

 

Well im pretty damn light haha i weigh about 115lbs.
