Hi

Just fitted hi-lows front & rear. Is there a good starting point?.

 

By this i mean the distance between the adjuster nut and lock nut.

 

Thanks

Are they actual Hilo’s or copies as they don’t all behave the same.

There's a few manufacturers and styles of them, so how to set and a starting point will vary between them.

Generally, before fitting, I'll set or compare them to the stock trumpets and set them to those lengths for a starting point.
