OK...got to working on the DS and it was brought to my attention that my front shocks are upside down.
Is there any particular reason for that? It is an 04 DS Baja X. The bigger diameter tube part is at the top and the arm comes down to the a arm. There is a lot of thread on each side of the adj. screw, like probably 50 threads...about 2 - 2 1/2 inches. I think the shocks are too tight, but if i let them out much more the shock covers won't even cover the springs!
What's Up With That?

Thanks guys!

SORRY ABOUT THE ALL CAPS TITLE EARLIER!!!

 

The baja models have the shocks how you have them and the other models like mine have the shcoks reverse from yours.

 

That just seems like the way to go....my works shocks are like that and so are the baja x model shocks.... elkas are also like that along with however many aftermarket companys.

 

Hopefully you got my last pm before you went out and started changing things as I got mixed up from the different models and shoulda suck with my first response and went and changed it because I thought of how mine is set up...Sorry for any inconvenience.

 

yeah, i got it...but I already went out and turned them over...oh well, it will just take another 4 hrs to switch it back. just kiddin'! Nah, i haven't had time to work on it today. Maybe in a few minutes I am gonna go take some more s#*t off of it.

Thank you all for your responses! And the research you did. I just wish I knew why they changed it for these. Not that it matters, but I am really curious!

 

I was like O man I hope he isnt changing them back well glad we figured that one out, but I believe they used different shocks on the newer models...It is no porb I have nothing better to do since its a rainy day and if you need any other help let me know...Later.

 

thanks man.....and everyone else...sorry about the ALL CAPS TITLE earlier...didn't know that was against the rules...but I do now. LOL!
