Title: Stock shock travel.
Post by arteacher on 06/14/12 at 15:35:04

Could someone tell me the amount of travel the stock shocks have?

The rear ones? A little over 1-3/4" to the bumpstop - but mind you that's the shock only and has no relation to the amount the wheel itself can travel. Due to the shock being at a 45deg angle, the axle being another 4" behind the shock with the pivot being 15" ahead of it, the wheel has substantially more travel than that.

Stock shock travel? Insufficient, I was always bottoming mine out. 230# should not be enough on shock setting 5 to bottom out. >:(
