making a twin shock a mono set up
« on: June 08, 2007, 02:41:08 PM »
has anyone done it?

i have seen one where it looks like that they took and brought a tube up and looped it to the other shock mount and then ran a shock under the seat?

i will try to find some pictures of what i am trying to say.
