I just added a set of Viper Ohlins on my SRX. I also widened the front end 2". Tight fit. The adjustment on the resevour just barely clears the belly pan. Will I have a problem with this? I can still reach in and adjust, but just barely.
Any opinions would be appreciated. Riding tomorrow and would hate to have a problem.

The only thing I can think of is make sure they don't hit when the suspension is fully compressed.
Mine on my viper where super close, take the springs off of the shocks and cycle the front suspension to be sure they won't hit. Maxdlx

Yup do as Max said and as long is there is no contact anywhere in the full range of travel you are in good shape. Enjoy!

My SRX has Ohlins, but that probably doesn't mean anything. I guess anytime you change something that was engineered, like the stance, it must have some side effects. Hopefully they're all good. Maybe just take it easy until you get a feel for how she handles... As XSIVHP said, if it travels without hitting on the shopfloor, it shouldn't in the wild either.. Good luck, and please let us know how it diced out. Thanks.. Steve.

Let us know if you remove the springs and cycle the front suspension. I also have his mounts and would be interested to know if the Ohlins will work.
