STEP 3
Use a hammer and flat blade screwdriver, to loosen the crossover rings.
STEP 4
Determine the Spring Correction Factor using the following table:
STEP 5
Use the following formula to calculate crossover ring placement:
Crossover Ring Placement = Shaft Travel (in.) x Crossover Point x Spring Correction Factor
EXAMPLE
•
A 5.2-inch travel shock with a 225 lb-in main spring and an 800 lb-in tender spring.
•
The crossover point is set at 55 percent.
•
From the table above, the spring correction factor is 0.220.
•
From the above formula, the crossover ring placement value is 5.2 x 0.55
x 0.220 = 0.629 inches.
IN THE ABOVE EXAMPLE, 55 PERCENT IS WRITTEN AS 0.55.
