what are the advantages using the jammin shocks over the xray

I have a set of each and there's not much difference. I don't see one having an advantage over the other. The Jammin's are made with a shock boot but you can get them for the Xray now too so thats not a big deal. I'll probably end up selling the Jammin's to buy another set of Xray's just so I only have to keep spares for one brand.

none in my opinion the xray shocks are good.

i also read that people were putting foam in top of the shock cap, on my nt1 i have foam in the tops of those caps should i do that on the 808. i really dont understand what the foam does for the shock

it will keep the shock more consistent and will keep the bladder from collapsing when the shock is compressed so yeah I would say to go ahead and do it when you build the shocks. It will keep you from having a "dead spot" in the shock when it starts to compress.

wont the top of the shock shaft hit the bladder then causing the bladder to leak? why did they use a left hand thread bolts to hold the shocks on the left sides or the front and rear lower arms?
