Hey guys, so any updates on these? Still happy with them?

Also I'm curious if anyone knows the diameter of the front shocks, where it matters for sway bar clearance. I'm a bit worried that these won't clear the Ankeny bar, similar to what happened to Marc.

 

I posted that info in here somewhere lol

 

Thank you! Sorry I didn't realize this was already posted.

 

Actually one more question - from looking at Marc's pictures the part that matters is the gold part right above the clevis. The biggest OD part where the adjusters are is high enough that it shouldn't affect the sway bar. The 64mm measurement - I assume that's the biggest part, which is where the adjusters are? I'm guessing you never measured the gold part?

Because 64 mm is 2.5 inches, which will probably be a problem.

 

No worries, I should have added it to the first page but oh well lol, I'm 99% sure it's the gold part that I measured.

 

Well crap. Yeah I found one of Marc's pictures that had some 2.25" springs next to the shocks, and based on measuring the picture I think you're right, it does look like the gold part is about 2.5". Tonight I'm gonna have to do some measuring to see if it works with the Ankeny bar. Thanks.

 

Just measured. The Penskes are 2-2.1" diameter there. I have about 1/4" of clearance to the sway bar blade bolt, plus really I wouldn't want much less than that since it'll articulate a little and I want some wiggle room. As we already established, the Ohlins are 2.5" diameter, so 1/4" or so less clearance...so they'll be touching. Dammit. Just sent Ankeny an email to see his thoughts.

 

You don't like the Penskes?

 

I want the adjustment range of the ohlins - it's far better than the penskes. Especially if I ever go to a three way, then the TTX is worlds better than the Penske in terms of adjustment capability. Plus lack of canisters will be sweet.

 

I do love the lack of canisters and the design just makes sense. Didn't realize Penskes had a small adjustment range.
