WP43's-- do you put the spring shims on the top or bottom of the spring? Going to try a little more preload.
Thanks

I strongly assume the top based on how the WP's with the external preload adjustment have the adjustment on top.

Also, all the forks I have seen have the shims on top (granted I've only seen the YZ250 KYBs and WP 45s and 48s).

CLW,
Top on WP's but Anssi on KYB bumper forks make sure you put them onb the bottom.

Thanks Jer and Annsi, I think I remembered reading somewhere that the YZ shims went on the bottom, the GG is different so thanks for the help. Again!
