Title: New shocks came today!
Post by: Lefty on May 22, 2014, 06:07:19 pm

I was a little surprised to open the box & they(Progressive) didn't come with springs. Any tips on springs? I've installed strut springs before, never bike springs, though. I've got a feeling I'm going to have to buy a smaller spring compressor.....

 I just bought a compressor set but I'm having a heck of a time finding springs for these shocks! They're 12-1202b series Progressive units. Any suggestions?

I think folks usually order the springs from Progressive when they order the shocks.

I'd give them a call & see what they recommend for a spring & a local dealer to purchase from.


Good luck
