Yes the shock will fit. I have the same one. Most take off the adjuster knob and cable. You can just reach in your hand and adjust (rebound). The preload adjusts just like stock.

Title: No grind...

No grinding on this. I bought and sold some last year for $20. That's just a guide. This year I paid $25 at a different wrecker to send to redlineracer from this list.
Cool.

thanks Srinath. I'll keep that in mind when I bid. Do you leave the adjuster cable on or just take it off?

Title: Remove it...
Post by: The Buddha on August 04, 2003, 10:57:37 AM
I remove them...When you get it you'll see it is sorta tacky looking.Also I think it will interfere with the top bolt fitment. Anyway the ones I had that had this un damaged I sent to the people that bought them...and I believe they took it off.
Cool.
