Been thinking about how to deal with the wheelie issue I really
don't want to put the bar back on and talking with a few buddy's they all say
put shock's back on it so I'm gonna rework the lower mount's and and see how it work's.

Not got a clue right now about spring rate or dampening so I think I'm going to use the stock ZRX
shock's I have to get a base line setup.
