Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Suggestion

I'd suggest using a small wrench to hold shaft, and a crows foot or similar on the nut with torque wrench at 90 degrees (if crows foot is perpendicular to the shaft of the torque wrench, you don't have to do the math to calculate extra length).

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

ROW M030 rear shock and spring going on a RSS rear shock mount (similar to tarrett/elephant racing) RSS mount came with spacers however. One for under mount, one for over mount. Elephant racing claims to only reuse factory spring perches. To retain the bump stop and lower mount spacer i figured id need the lower washer also? but something looks off. Any feedback?

POST 2Original post

Looks like your spacer/washers are in the wrong place according to the diagram.

The diagrams show OEM Setup . The "instruction" sheet shows what Elephant Racing requests to reuse from the OEM setup.

not sure its �needed� based on what Vorshlag told me about their setup for the front. was hoping someone had assembled a similar setup. also, whats the best way to hold shock piston to tightem shock nut? Originals had a Torx center
