Alright, most likely I'm going to be buying the gt thunder rear xc linkage next week. But I was wondering if it would work well with my stock rear shock. I know I am going to have to take off or at least cut around my swing arm skid plate. But are there any other things I should know about it before I go out and spend 140 bucks?


If anyone knows anything about steering dampners please reply to my other thread:

Send him the whole rear shock and get it revavled for your weight also. You can get away with leaving on the stock rear spring if you want too, I did. The whole rear package spring, revalve and link is $340. You can save $100 if you keep your stock spring.

Yeah I know, but don't have that kind of money to put into it. I have to get a steering stabalizer as well and save for car insurance....
