Re: The Haas KX500 build. Dyno Doug Haas

Re: The Haas KX500 build. Dyno Doug Haas

I have the new shock shaft modified to fit the KX500 linkage. I had to shorten the clevis, Drill and tap the bolt hole, and clearance the inside of the clevis. The next one I do I will clearance the linkage a bit more so I can take less from the shock. 20230319_145913.jpg 272906198_4961196267260113_...
