Got my shock back from Racetech today. Problem is I didn't pay enough attention to it's orientation when I removed it a month ago.
So how does it go in:
Is the rebound adjuster on the right or left?
Is the hose to the preload adjuster on the top or the bottom?

Thanks,
JIM

The rebound adjuster needs to line up with the port provided in the frame on the right....line that up and everything is as it should be.

Thanks pyro. I guess I just needed a break and lunch. After lunch I went out to look at it again and said, "DUUH!"

I think there's some law of physics that says the "duh" reaction can't happen until after you've posted about it. :)

You can't really put it in upside down, the fittings are different so it's just a matter of orienting the rebound adjuster to the right so it's accessible.

I didn't mean inverted or up-side-down, I meant does the preload hose go forward or rearward. another "duhh".
thanks
