Just finishing fitting set of AVO adjustable shocks to the Wedge.

Has anyone got experience on where I should start the setting - they have 12 point adjustment ?

I would have thought about half way - I know it will end up on personnel preference.

Thanks thumbup

High Mightmouse,

I put AVO adjustables on mine. I was told seven clicks on the front and five on the rear as a starting point. Thats what I did and I its OK but a little soft on the front for me. However after about three months the adjusters had seized solid and the fronts are a pig to get at in situ. So give them plenty ogrease or copper slip to keep them free.

Wee man.

Hi Guys,

I'm thinking of getting new shocks and springs for my 400se. Could you tell me how much you paid, to give me a ball park figure.

Cheers

Have to look when I get home - but if you go on the AVO website parts & prices are listed.
Seemed to be best value as well + they are used in various competion uses.

Also when you phone to order - ask them for discount, I did & being in TVRCC, got 10% off thumbup

I've had some billet aluminium Redlines on mine for the past few years. Look great, perform well, and even after this time the adjusters still work fine.
