Marthon Front shock installation

fastxcr · 04-04-2016, 09:41 AM

Doing some pre golf season maintenance and front shock were shot. Put new ones on and have two questions.

-How much do you tighten shocks?Just so rubber bushings are tight or do you want them to mushroom so much?

-Old shocks were blown out so they were completely depressed and new shock seem long and all the specs I see are 17" not compressed which mine are. It is up on jack stand now as I am doing some other work so have not put tires and wheels on to make sure once weight on cart are on it it sits fine. Is 17" correct for shock length? Part number on old shock was 15707-G1 and new are 72205
