Hi,
I need some help from someone who knows a fair bit about tpc+, most probably from orven.
Cut a long story short im thinking about putting the guts of a dorado TPC+ damper into an old 2000 monster T chassis i have (the carts are not so good anyway and need replacing) for something to do as i like to tinker and make things better
I have a couple of issues, like making new top caps, bottom caps etc i can handle all that.
Problem is the complete damper is 30-40mm too long, and i need to shorten it.
On the dorado the leg is actually the outside of the closed damper, so i need to make a new outer casing as the dorado has that cnc'd axle clamp cryo fit on the stanchion.
If i make a new one, can i make it 30-40mm shorter without effecting anything? For example, the top and bottom pistons won't bash together?
I was looking at the sherman single crowns and the stanchion (outer damper casing) is alot shorter so i think it would be ok to do this.
Or would i shorten the rod??
Just want to know if this is doable before i pull apart the closed damper to take a look.
Thanks
