Yea, its either a typo or you are not understanding it. Moving out on the bottom, and in on the top is more inclined. Moving in on the bottom, and out on the top is more vertical. |

allright......now to throw a loop in this. if you say more inclined is laying it more towards horizontal.............then why would you walk on a horizontal plane or an inclined plane. the only reason i am wondering is for adjustments. i see what you are saying about vertical sooooooo why did they not just use that word so all this confusion would be gone

I was reading the manuel and i think they just switched how to make it more inclined/ declined. What are you trying to do? If you want to stiffen then you laydown the shocks, if you want to soften then you stand up the shocks. |

Ok, you are getting confused cause you are asking for detailed explanation on something that is as simple as left hand, right hand. Vertical = Straight up and Down. Inclined = Angled slightly, not straight up and down anymore. Horizontal = Straight left and right. I don't think I can explain it any further, without making something so simple seem so complex. Its either one, or the other. One of two things, and nothing else. |

Here's where some people are confused. "Inclined" does not necessarily mean angled from vertical. It can also mean angled from the horizontal. For instance, a highway is flat but if you approach the hill you can say the road is on an incline which means it has gone more vertical. The opposite is also true such as in the instruction manual where inclined means it has gone more horizontal. Neither is wrong because you can incline from either the vertical or the horizontal. The only confusion is because the instructions only mentions "inclined" but does not mention whether they mean inclined from vertical or inclined from horizontal. I hope that clears up any confusion anyone might have on this. |

Hi, Basicly, shock placement at shock tower is a "fine tune" for hardness of spring rate and dampening. It usually won't effect droop very much. Shock Tower - Move in = Softer Shock Tower - Move out = Stiffer Shock placement at lower arms is a major change in spring rate, dampening and droop. Lower Arm - Move out = Stiffer, less droop Lower Arm - Move in = Softer, more droop The theory is like the lever thing, just try to install different holes and get a feeling with your hands, it is quite significant. In most cases, I will not touch the lower arm holes as it effects too much. Thx Joaquim |

Hi, This is getting confusing... Another off topic thing but I have found a mistake in instructions that would mislead all newbies. TQ instructions (setting) on page 38, SHOCK MOUNTING POSITION: More inclined = moving in on tower and/or moving out on lower arm (180 booker, this is true) One of the characteristics is: SOFTER initial damping (This is 1/2 true and 1/2 wrong) I believe that moving out on lower arm will give harder damping and less droop, is this a typing mistake? Regards Joaquim |
