RS9000 Mounting Q's??

[Ted Z]

Ok, my post got lost in the latest "fix" of the forums....

Can i mount RS9000's upside down?

And also does the angle of the shock in relation to the axle tube matter much?

I made a new upper mount between the frame rails and the shocks mount about 3-4 inches apart on the upper end to try to get all my travel available..

They seem to be doi their job pretty good at that position... i'm gonna leave them that way 4 now....

My exhaust is a 45 turndown after the flowmaster muffler...it turns down right in front of the rear tires....

I thought the rs9000s could be mounted upside down with no ill effects
