[QUOTE="FJRLoonie, post: 1324970, member: 18389"] I had Racetech springs installed by a dealer. They were unaware of the spring guides that are necessary`and had to remove and reinstall the springs. Did you install the spring guides as stated below from their website. FRSP S4031 WASHER WARNING. Requires new spring guide FPSG 1027127 P to use RT springs. Install 24mm ID washer on top of cartridge. Washer must locate on shoulder. Spring must be installed with small tapered end down. Install new RT spring guide (long taper down) then RT spring collar. Next install preload spacer tube. (RT spring is longer than stock-check preload instruction for proper setup.) Install nut then fork cap. Gold Valve Kit comes with preassembled Compression & Rebound Valves. TFSH 20 Shaft Holding Tool required for GV Kit. `` [/QUOTE]
