Need Help; Progressive Spring Swap

Post by CTBQ »

For whoever has done this upgrade, what did you do for spring seats? My kit did not come with washers, and the stock spring seats do fit on one side very snug, and from what I believe you want there to be motion in it? What did you guys use? What should I use? First Post! Thanks for having me, and I will soon be flooding the forum with pictures of the Bike I'm close to having done. And Thanks to thatkid for helping out with all the knowledge and parts.

You are talking about the washer between the spring and the preload spacer? Any washer that will fit inside the fork tube will work. I don't know why the ones that were in there were tight, perhaps they are not original? Go to your local hardware store and bring your old washers to find one slightly smaller.
