Ya, after getting up on website, I can send them in, and have them put in a rebuild kit, for reasonable price. Plus can have them basically lighten up the shock, for around $65 each. So I'll just go that route. But again, need to get them mounted first.
After looking at it more, think best route to take would be to make the lower mount brackets high enough to set over the exhaust. If I try to bend the pipe in, might be to close to the engine case. Also, make a extended bracket with multi locations I can set the shock. Think seen x bird do that. So can arrange the pitch if need to for both lower and upper brackets.
I've got pretty much any type of thickness scrap metal plates I can use to make the brackets. Just seems I keep adding weight to the thing. One of these days, need to do some other mods to up the HP in it.
