Hi Guys

Should the shock settings of 8mm be set prior to putting on the spring
i.e. Distance between Shock case & Ball end

up to issues 24 - 27

Thanks

Taken from Tomick's Official build diary:- "The distance from the ball end and the shock case should be set at 8mm for both front shocks.

At 8mm the ground clearance of the model is set to neutral. If you want a lower ground clearance at the front, then adjust the distance of both front shocks to 7mm.
To increase the ground clearance, you can set the distance to 9mm."

So by that I think we are to adjust the shock length by screwing the ball ends further on or off. Confused

Set with spring off, as per step 22 of issue 26.

Correct, the adjustment is set via the ball socket.
