Shock orientation

[micaelaman]

Hi,

I have replaced all the bushings in the rear suspension on my SRX 700 -98.
Now i have forgot which way the shocks go in. Does anyone has a picture on the rear susppension with the shocks in place.

These are pic's from my daughters viper project but the skids are all the same. Sould be good enough to see what your looking for. Chris

Thanks,

Just what im looking for

So the front shock should sit "up side down" and the rear shock should have the small gas valve pointing downwards.

Yup thats how they go. Im not sure that it matters which way the gas/needle valve goes but mine do point down on the rear shock and up on the front shock. Im sure it its wrong someone will help out.
