i know its possible but im wondering if there is something that im not aware off if i mount them upside down? the reson why i want to do this modd is that ill get the weight from the dampers closer to the ground if they ar mounted upside down. also im experiencing that the rear dampers already have begun to leak oil, and i dont want to replace inside orings all the time. so can you tell me why i shouldt mount the dampers udpside down? i run on a carpet offroad track, the same as kant76 |

i havent mounted them upside down yet, and wanted to ask here before i did it. it was my plan to do so to prevent as mouch oil spill as there is now when they are mounted the right way. |

replace the orings and lube them up withe the oring lube I have with me always. I can make a movie with my way of building the schoks but you have already seen it like a trillion times on the track. you do build them the right way but it takes years of pracice to get them 100 % perfect every time. the main reason why your schoks are leaking are the lag of maintanance on your car. normaly I rebuild my shoks and lube the orings the day b4 we go to the track. |
