Wide glide lowering

[Mango13]

Can u pull the spring out and chop it off and then make up the difference with a pvc spacer at the dampener. I've done this on other front ends but didn't know about a wide glide???

Sure you can............

[Mango13]

Have you ever done it???

just adding spacerssprings at the damper will lower things.
spring height changes preload
cutting springs changes spring rate
you dont necessarily need to cut any springs

Your sayin take the fork lower off and put a spacer in then slide it back over the dampener and tighten it down? Have u used this method? Just wondering

Your not going to learn anything on this thread... Only if you get your hands dirty..... Believe me what I said will work.... If your not sure just ride it like it is.... I hate a bike that's on the ground and scrapes in every little curve....

Um, no.
A spacer there would only limit slider travel.

Pull the damper and adjust top out height between the damper and the tube.
Basically a longer top out spring and spacer stack will effectively lower the front end.
I've actually lengthened frot ends with shorter springs (valve)
