Bull 200 Shocks - Page 2

Rear came in today. I installed it but it's bottoming out. I might try going with the dual rear shock that was posted where. I don't want to go back to the stock shock. It's tough on my old body.

I'm gonna be posting an in depth how to video tomorrow on how to do the dual shock install. Step by step. I've already made the video just gotta go up to my wife office to use the high speed internet. Mine here at the house is way to slow to upload videos. Should be up by 10:00am.

Looks like the same ones I bought.

I looked at your post. Just mocked everything up for the dual shock install and should be good. Need two longer bolts after work tomorrow and then I'll install. Seems pretty straight forward and I'm not the handiest guy. Hopefully they don't bottom out with two. Have you ridden yours since doing it?

Oh yea I've done a lot of riding with it, I weight 240lbs and mine never bottoms out

How many pounds of air are you all putting in them?I bet the ride is so much smoother.What about just putting 1 shock on the back?Sorry I didn't read through all the post about just adding 1 shock.So 1 shock is not enough.

I haven't messed with the air, it's just as it came. I haven't been able to find any recommendations on air and am not familiar enough to mess with it. The two on the rear seem nice but I haven't taken it out yet. They have to be better then stock though. I could barely move the stock rear it was so hard.

Recommendations I've found on line are about 80 psi for the RFY shocks. Hard to make it precise with such a small reservoir because you loose some pressure when you remove the air chuck feom the valve.

I copied and pasted this for the sellers ad where I bought mine.
Factory Air Pressure: 0.4 Mpa
