#529105 dixie (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 92 Re:Roadwing Rear Shock Conversion 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I got the wing shock in, tested everything , went for a ride,, and broke the pump housing. It has a boss with a set screw in it, wont work it this is not intact. I am trying to fix the housing, if not, then I have to find a pump housing. this sucks.. but I am sure I put it in too tightly, and strapped it real well, when I came back after the ride, it was loose, so it is hitting something., gotta be the swing arm. I was os looking forward to not hitting bottom, now it feels like no suspension at all, I measured the bottom of the fram rail to the ground, on the left side with kick stand down, it is less than 2 inches,, looooow rider..   Logged     [img size=150][/img]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #529124 jd750ace (User) I'm not IN danger, I AM the danger Platinum Boarder Posts: 7985 Re:Roadwing Rear Shock Conversion 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   You talking about the preload collar on the shock?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #529132 dixie (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 92 Re:Roadwing Rear Shock Conversion 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   No, its on the pump itself.. there is a boss with some kind of adjustment screw in it, thats what I broke.. I am trying to patch it overnite,, maybe the weld and a hose clamp on it.. there is not fluid leaking or pressure on the screw.. not sure what it is for.   Logged     [img size=150][/img]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #529159 Makcap (User) How boring it would be if we were all the same Platinum Boarder Posts: 1935 Re:Roadwing Rear Shock Conversion 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Dixie did you put the pivot back in right easy to flip when the assembly is out. Your describing the frame sounds like that might have happened. Reference the flip and grind to double check.   Logged     [img size=150][/img]RIDE DS:219 MASSILLON OHIOhttp://banners.wunderground.com/weathersticker/miniWeather2_both_cond/language/www/US/OH/M   The administrator has disabled public write access. #529161 jd750ace (User) I'm not IN danger, I AM the danger Platinum Boarder Posts: 7985 Re:Roadwing Rear Shock Conversion 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Not sure what ya busted, but good luck with 'er!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #529185 dixie (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 92 Re:Roadwing Rear Shock Conversion 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I put it back together the same way it came out.. someone before me may have done this.. I mean, this thing is slammed..after looking at the tech articles.. I think it was flipped/ but I still have the broken pump. I did not notice any grinding marks, everything looked stock to me.. but what do i know? should it be sitting so low even without the pump working? with the stock shock , it was low to begin with, hence the desire to change.. help me out here..   Logged     [img size=150][/img]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #529187 dixie (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 92 Re:Roadwing Rear Shock Conversion 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   JD.. yours sits at least twice as high as mine.. I can see your feet,, on mine if i were standing like you are in the pic, you can not see under it..   Logged     [img size=150][/img]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #529191 Makcap (User) How boring it would be if we were all the same Platinum Boarder Posts: 1935 Re:Roadwing Rear Shock Conversion 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   If you look at my pic that is lowered by flip and grind compare to JD. So you'll have to compare with the tech article as reference.   Logged     [img size=150][/img]RIDE DS:219 MASSILLON OHIOhttp://banners.wunderground.com/weathersticker/miniWeather2_both_cond/language/www/US/OH/M   The administrator has disabled public write access. #529205 jd750ace (User) I'm not IN danger, I AM the danger Platinum Boarder Posts: 7985 Re:Roadwing Rear Shock Conversion 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Mine is all stock in that pic.
