It's my second question of the day. I'm on a roll here.
I've got some new front shocks to replace the old worn out ones that make me
feel like I'm on a rollercoaster when I go over a bump. I found a page (
http://volksweb.relitech.com/frshocks.htm ) that seems to describe it pretty
well, but I wanted to see if anyone else had any input before I do it.
I've heard that you should replace the bolt holding it in place, but does
anyone know the size of that bolt? I've also heard that there's a rubber
bushing on the top that needs to be replaced, but my new shocks didn't come
with anything.
And one last thing: when I manually compress one of these shocks, it doesn't
automatically expand out again. Am I missing something, or is that ok? These
are Sachs that I got from the Bus Depot.
Thanks for all the help, guys.
