    It takes time, that's the only way to do it right. My brother was shocked when I cycled his suspension for hours getting his bumps right. They kinda act like a sway bar on the street it's awesome.

    Oh woah, just noticed that line.
    I don't think it's a crack, I think someone keyed his glass.

    I did for a long time. Never used hydro's because you really only need them if you're jumping 5+ ft high.

    2'' if you're going to strike off the LCA. 4'' if you're going to bump off the UCA via an engine cage.

    I'd even go shorter, 1.5" or so if they're mounted inward on the LCA as you don't want to be riding the bumps, or for it to be in contact for a large percentage of travel at the wheel. :cool:
