Elka shockks on 2014 RT

[Spyderdale]

Removed the Elkas from my 2013 RT before I traded it in and reinstalled them on the 2014 RT. Called Elka before I did it and they sent me new heavier springs and told me to set the preload at three turns on the collars after the collars just touch the springs. Forgot to measure the ride height before I changed the shocks. Anyway the front looks lower or maybe its my imagination. Anybody setup their Elkas for the 2014 RT? Just did it this afternoon so havent riden it yet. Going by the dealer tomorrow and measure the ride height on a stock RT just to satisfy myself that I have enough preload. Any comments ?

I moved mine over from my 13 to my new 14. I did not have to get new springs for mine but I already had the heavier springs on my 13 however I did crank the collars down. I measured my 14 and the ride height went up by 1 7/8 inches. Great improvement in ride as well as handling, love em...:thumbup:

If your ride height changes, don't forget to adjust your headlights. I had Elkas installed @ Cowtown @ the last SpyderFest held there & they adjusted the headlights afterwards.

W/hat is your total ride height under the front of the center frame now ?
