Hi all,
used the search option as much as possible but no info about these types of shocks at all, plenty of you i see have the comp 2 range but whats the crack with the zero-2's?

I need as much info as possible so please if anyone has any suggestions they are welcomed enthusiastically:D
cheers

cool mate, i checked and can remember that they were 5 point damper adjustable and they had large spring drop...

apparently 7kg up fornt and 5 at rear spring rates if i read correctly, but a zero 2 coilover and zero 2r, cant understand what difference on website and which ones i have
cheers

2r should have a inverted shock, so the shock on the fronts shoudl be HUGE compared with the rear.

that's one way
sorry no time to dothe leg work tonight..i'll do it tomorrow if you have no luck!

ahhh ok i dunno exactly what they should look like if a 2r do you have a photo of some 2r's? these are the ones i have bought, as they are in the photo:

cusco website is still hard to negotiate with babbelfish and there dont seem to be any differences in the photos of the zero 1, 2 and 2r's....

I have been informed that the zero 1's were fixed damping, with 2's being adjustable, and 2r's being inverted damper design.

which ones do i have above?i shall have to have a look when they arrive and see what they were like, they were sold as zero-2's not r's, but the seller said they were non adjustable damping just spring rate adjustable, is he confused or something?:D

if you have time please dig up all the info you have i really wanna know more, spring rates were 7 on front and 5 on rear but option to choose different spring rates when they were bought new
cheers

ya i saw those pics, Paz posted them on benson's board

those are probably/most likely 2s
2rs have a inverted shock (meaning front shock looks HUGE).e xample is if you look at the JIC shocks FLTa2s, thats an inverted shock.

those are deifnately not 2r
im 99.999% you have 2s or lower...definately not 2r

cheers
