As you know Iβm not much of a writer but I have trimmed 11mm from both sides of the swinger ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53649216301_0fd6b35d5e_k.jpg) The frame mounts were 208mm and the swinger 230mm. Iβve found and ordered some 37mm od x 22mm id bearings and an headstock set as well so at a standstill for now π ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53649562949_7e88e6f186_k.jpg) MattπΆπ»πΆ

Bearings arrived midday so I set about it ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53650169187_1202ce40a0_k.jpg) Bearings in and the swinger was on ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53651257133_56140195df_k.jpg) Only slightly jacked up and the SZR shock feels a bit stiff with no static sag Iβll wait until the lumps in before deciding if I need a softer one Matt πΆπ»πΆ
