It really doesn't look like there's THAT much of a height difference between ridin dumped on 18's than ridin dumped on 19's..I mean if you compare pics between Royal T on 18's vs FatBoyYoshi and Starve on 19's they both look like they're ridin around the same height..

Also.....anyone with stance have problems with adjusting the front shocks?

I tried to adjust my suspension in the front for the first time (Ive done the back a lot) and i can't adjust them. I loosen the bottom most collar but then when I go to turn the top collar it doesn't do anything. No matter which way I turn it. One way it just tightens up and doesnt budge and the other way it just breaks loose. Any ideas? SOme one said something about they could be seized?

It's possible it can be seized. Did you try spraying a ton of wd40 or something similar on the threads and let it sit for a while?

Or maybe the threaded shock is bottoming out in the lower mount and its as low as it can go?

It's gotta be one or the other...

I am having trouble picturing what you are saying. If they are like mine, all you need to do is break the bottom collar loose, turn it a little to move it up, then remove the bottom nut and bolt from the shock and twist the lower shock body to move it upwards... Is that what you are doing?

(You'll also need to unbolt the upper A-arm probably)

Pic might help too

Imma try the wd40 I was out of it at the time. But it cant be the second because I was trying to actually raise one side up a half an inch to match the other side. It wont raise or lower.
