Mono-Shock vs. M-10

i should call and find out. while im jobless it would be a good time to get stuff done on the sleds! :o| hopefully it works in the stock holes so i can throw the track and chaincase in.

it was a family owned business and i was the only full time employee that wasnt family. i was there 7 years and the owners grandson has been there 5. of coarse he advances past me, winding up making twice as much as me and knowing half as much! they wanted to make room for more family at my expense. i dont feel too bad about it. its a good chance for me to move on and up. a friend of mine is trying to get me into his work for $1,000 more a month with great benefits including a 4-3-3-4 work schedule. can you say mid week riding! ;)!

good memory mike! im looking into a maintenance position now. the place im eyeing up currently makes aluminum cans for miller brewing and a few other places. i checked the place out last night and loved it! super clean, not afraid to spend money when needed and the biggest warehouse i have seen in a long time! the best part is the fully equipped machine shop, i could have a lot of fun in there!
 
This is what Bender says

"You would be able to mount it, as you would any other aftermarket suspension, but it would require some different (or modifying of our) mounting brackets etc. It would take some careful measuring, and a little mechanical abilty, but definitely do-able.

Mike"

So I guess it's possible!! Good news for all us pre-proaction chasis owners!
 
i talked to mike at bender and new front mounts need to be drilled on the viper. it includes a template and brackets. they are shipping at the end of october.
 
I just reserved my "reaction" suspension yesterday and they are saying mid-nov delivery now... I hope they get the penske shock dialed in. It would be nice if it was double adjustable... gives more options...

I'm hoping for a good ride too. I put about 3000 miles a year on my viper and by the time I had my proaction shocks rebuilt and new bushings I was at $220. so for $780 more I get a new suspension... I couldn't find a fresh M-10 or ExpertX for that.

Maybe the mono shock suspension will give me some insight into how the 06's will ride too? That knowledge may save me a bundle when I replace my sled next year.

Can wait! this will be my first skid install too.
 
has anyone talked to bender and asked if the reaction will transfer weight like the mono rx1 does? that would really make the srx a lot more fun.
 
the ride of the 06's is simply incredible :) nice choice of suspension, but even with that you will still want to ride an 06 to feel that sweet front end :)
 
I am putting a mono skid into my Viper. If any of you guys that ordered the Bender reaction I would apprecieate it if you could scan in the templetes for the mounting hardware.
I bought this at the end of last year from a member that parted out his '05 RX1. I took some measurements off the '05 becasue it had the front mounting holes for the pro-action in the tunnel. I would like to double check my measurements against the Bender instructions. I asked them if they would sell me the instructions and they said NO.

I ordered the rear mounting brackets for the RX-1 and I am goning to make my own for the front.

I plan on starting working on it in the next couple of weeks. I will let you guys know how it goes.
 
that kinda stinks they wont even sell you the instructions! I mean you didnt buy it from them, but you may want other parts later on and now I bet after this you will look elsewhere...I know I would.......
