cougar front shock limiters

[reg]

Hi,
Iv noticed on some of the setups it says 2mm front shock limiters,what do they do(dont state the obvious)and when would you need to use them,
thanks

I normally use limiters when using Stagger ribs to ensure that the droop/uptravel are still correct, as it is a smaller diameter tire.

I try to ensure that the front always as slightly less droop & uptravel when compared to the rear.

i run the lower front shock as i run with stagger`s,i thought it was for when you used them,but it give more up travel than the rear and not much less on the downtravel,iv got mt rear ball cups undone 3 turns,
am i just better off putting the old shock tower back on?

Mark, I'm getting worried about the number of technical set-up threads you're creating recently. Are you taking this seriously now or something?

I would leave the tower on, otherwise you won't have enough front droop. Then you can just limit uptravel.

I use 2x 0.030" Associated shock limiters, but any 1/8" ID spacer should work.
