John in NC Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Where may I get the best price on the brake res. caps that go on the ABS control unit. 2004 RT. My rear shock pre load adjustment is very stiff after 3 turns clockwise. Is this normal? Thanks in advance Link to comment

My rear shock preload adjustment is very stiff after 3 turns clockwise. Is this normal? Thanks in advance John, I can't help with the first question but for the preload adjuster, have you determined if the preload circuit needs to be filled? Back the knob off all the way. If there is more than 1 turn from fully CCW before you feel any resistance, you need to add some hydraulic jack oil to the preload circuit.

Ken H. Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 The two caps and the Y hoses are all sold as a single assembly. #5 in this diagram - K25 R1150RT PRESSURE MODULATOR Link to comment
John in NC Posted August 13, 2007 Author Share Posted August 13, 2007 I'm not having trouble finding the caps, I just refuse to pay $43 for this 2¢ piece of plastic. Link to comment
