Indeed it does , thank you .drbelleville wrote:If you are keeping it on a budget one way to get the most out of those shocks is to polish the shock shaft with 1000 grit, a drill and some Brass-O (polishing compound). Once polished they will have less tendency to scratch or damage the seals, and also pick up dirt and debris. Also I see that one shock end is shorter than the other, could have been done to limit travel, but its better to run an internal limiter in the shock, so you do not risk pulling the shaft out of the ball end, and possibly losing you retainer and spring.
Hope this helps a bit.

I am not thrilled with the cut down end but it will work for now . This thing is a LONG ways from seeing any actual use . I am hoping to score some real shocks for it at some point .
Right now I am just making the most out of what I have to work with and seeing where it goes.
Most of the parts came off the oval roller ( and it was well raced ! ) and the setup was ........Different !
The rear shocks were set up to the point of binding .
I couldn't get a decent shot of it but the ouside shocks really showed substantial wear as opposed to the other side.
