KW rear height adjustment

Express · 11-05-2011, 12:57 AM

several people wondered how hard (easy) it is to adjust the rears of kw's since you get a lot of play.

all i did was took the dremel and make an indent where i can fit a flat head to hold it in place while adjusting height.

hope the picture helps. good luck may gravity be with you.

You can also spray some WD40 to lubricate the spring perch.

The addition of thrust bearings will allow you to turn the adjuster with ease.

Yes, you can hold one portion stationary with a channel lock and turn the other.
