Thanks for the reply. I still would like to know how you check the bumper. Do you remove the wheel? I can’t see any bumper on mine looking underneath. My problem is my wife sliding forward on the harsh bumps and complaining it jars her back so I’m wondering if preload needs tweaked but can’t see bumper to tell.
Thanks I may give Kevin a call. I just want make sure I have a problem before I bother him Wife says she don’t think it’s bottoming out but she is getting jarred and sliding forward on hard bumps. As I said I can barely see the top of the bumper on bottom of shock but can’t tell if there Is any gap under the bumper. I’m thinking I may have to pull one of wheels to see what is going on. We are in Illinois and roads are pretty rough. I know the pa shocks and lift kit made a world of difference. Just hoping maybe I can get them a little better. Thanks again to everyone.
Hi Mike,
You can check the bumper by getting on the ground, behind the Trike and looking forward to the shocks with a flashlight. You will be able to see the bumper thru the spring coils. When the bumper is ALL the way down, you will barely be able to see the top of it. This is because the bottom collar is concave and there is more stroke than you can see when looking at the shock from the back.
Definitely call or email us, it is no bother. We will help get it adjusted so that there is no hard jarring on anything except on huge potholes.
Kevin
