You get that 8" lift kit and 50 bazillion shock upgrade?? Like the white truck we saw at the redneck cafe?

Not yet, but I'm saving up!

I rebuilt the whole front end. Now it should stay in a staight line while on the freeway.

The elevation race is the one on Garbonzo? Correct? If it is the same one I am thinking of, this is a rain/shine or snow race. Should be fun to watch....damn work...I think I might try to get 2 hours off to go do some watching.

Cory, no messenger while at work? I have a possible fix for the DHR bushings. I have an extra if you want to use it. Basically i replaced the 2 spacers with 1 pin that fits much tighter and has 2 outer spacers to center the shock. Im pretty sure its the exact same thing roger at romic is making, but i didnt have to wait a few weeks.... I have the spare at home and can get it to nick. I have to grind it a bit shorter since my calculations were a bit off. I t came out wider than the link spacing.

sweet sounds good, is it a tight fit and everything? I know they made those for FOX shocks, and they worked killer.
YEA, the fit is just right. For some reason the spacers in both my romic shocks are loose enough to be removed by hand, only on the rebound end. The other end are pretty tight and need a plier to remove them. The pin i made will go in and out with a some force, so when all locked in should rotate enough to not bind the shock, but not slop around wearing the bushing really fast.

I'll likely be there, probably getting knocked out by something in the Boneyard.

Look for me on the ground, I'll be the dashingly handsome unconscious man with the amazingly yellow bike with a kickass looking Monster T!!

I'm heading up tomorrow through Sunday. I have to clean out my apartment and consider myself officially a Vancouver resident now. I'll miss Whistler, it was fun while it lasted.
