Posted August 28, 200915 yr Just a quick one, Has anybody ever increased the length of the spacer at the top of the front suspension legs to make the suspension stiffer. As using a thicker oil would only slower the rebound im thinking of inreasing the length of the top spacer with washers or a longer tube to harden the downward pressure, Anyone with any thoughts or tried this.
