i just bought a manitou swinger 4 way coil shock. it came with a 400 pound spring. I had a manitou swinger 3 way coil with a 500 pound spring but i blew it, so hence the 4-way.
When i got it i put it on and i cud compress it by just sitting on it even with 150 psi. im not light but im not the heaviest guy either (180 lbs) i then put the 500 pound spring on and it still compresses even with the max 175 psi
I know its not supposed to compress this far. my 3-way that was blown was stiffer than this. even with no air.
So what im wondering is... did i buy a dud that came with a defect? or do i just need a much stiffer spring?
