It is easy, Ken, they just used the coil spring set sideways so the axle could fit through the hole. Ride is a bit harsh, but the front end probably is not low......[grin]....I'm not sure about the anti-dive feature on braking, though. [bigger grin]

Me too! I'm interested to see how the coil spring and the axle shaft
occupy the same space at the same time. :-)

By golly, Jerry, I'll bet you're right. You get "out of the box" by simply
turning 90*! :-)

After all, a coil spring is just a torsion bar that is repackaged Smile
