My .02 140-160

""As far as the 140 versus 240 rear springs,USE THE 240's! You WILL have to change to the 240 upper rear spring mounts but it is literally a 1 bolt "bolt in" and there are at least 3 different height 240 rear spring mounts available.Allowing you to fine tune your ride height.I sell the upper mounts for $20 a pair. ""

I have never heard of this adjustability.. are they different mounts? or the same mount just adjusted? Where can I find them and what different options do I have?


What were the KYBs doing over the speed bumps? Too much dampening or not enough? I need to get shocks all the way around soon and have noticed that IPD doesn't advertise as many shock combinations for early 140s anymore. Something about another mount that needs to be changed to the 240 type. Do you know about this?

Thanks, Hudson
