thanks, mark
it sounds like he use the sch 40 electric conduit on his 40mm forks be cause of the dia. based on what i have 43mm forks sch 80 conduit works same outside dia. as the topout springs and slides over the damper rod with a tad bit of wiggle room. both sch 40 and sch 80 have the same outside dia. it the i.d. that gets eaten up on the sch 80. i am picking up a lengh of sch 80 1" pipe today so if anyone needs some spacers let me know i will have plenty its 20' long pipe. i happen to call racetech and talked to lou and he also said they use lowering blocks on 43mm forks not springs. i asked what material they use for the blocks he stated delrin,pvc, and aluminum stock milled out.
thanks again, Chris :worthy:
