Jeff(ProCycle), Thank you, all my sway bars are lose and need new rubber bushings, maybe nuts as well. Good news to me, I can fix it.
Brett(wolfe10), Thank you. I have yet to learn how how adjust coach height. Thank you also for your work on shocks with Ralph. Very interesting study and conclusion on Koni shocks that work best. Does this sound right to you.
front; Koni 88-1641SP3 rear; Koni 88-1458
5SP1 ?
We are quite excited to have this information. So much I have learn and I'm eager to learn it.
Also thanks to TDJohn for posting shock numbers.
I am getting some 1/2" drive tools to prepare for work ahead.
I will do sway bars and shocks and hopefully ride height before dropping steer gear box.
I can't thank you guys enough.
Rusty
P.S. I need to learn about shock adjustment.
FYI, There is an extra digit (error) in the number for the rear shocks.
Here are the correct number again...
Front: Koni 88-1641SP3
Rear: Koni 88-1458SP1

Yes, do this on level ground, then tell us ride height at each wheel position AND the number of the 1/4" steel shims in front of and in back of each of those wheel positions.
This is NOT difficult and I have adjusted many with just hand tools. NO heavy lifting involved to adjust ride height on the torsilastic suspension.

Does anyone know how to quit this group? We no longer have a Safari, but cannot disable our account. There does not seem to be any contact us link either. I spend a lot of time and cannot get off.

Merek,
What exactly is your issue?
Are you receiving posts from the group via email???
If that is the case, sign in, go into User Control Panel, then Board Preferences, then Global Settings. Make all adjustments as needed.
