MikeV Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I have RS9000's and was hoping I could invert the rear shocks due to the airlines hanging in harms way; Just wondering if anyone has actually ran them upside down? Ripping airlines in the middle of the woods sucks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveMyPatty Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I think 88 inverted some RS5000's and had troubles with them. Just zip tie the line to the shock body or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj big shoe Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I have my rears inverted and was planning to install the remote controller this weekend. The Rancho tech said they will run a little softer that way (set at 7 will feel like 5) until they cycle a couple times, then they should perform like normal. I checked since I figured I'd run into the same issue you're having with the air lines pulling apart when flexing the rear a lot. I'll keep enough hose length coiled up under the truck to flip them back around just in case though, see how that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
