Nice build! get ready for the fun to start! To shorten the shocks, just add a 1/2 inch piece of fuel line inside the shock body. You will remove the piston and put the fuel line inside the body, put the piston back in. Add oil, and cap it. You are now done. reinstall and hit the trail. |

Paint the green stuff another color, and that would be sick.
