I’ve bought a set of rebel racing adjustable perches to go over my rear bilstein dampers.
Unfortunately, for the duel rate springs I have (tender and main spring), the isolator collar (between the two springs) ID at 54mm is just too small to go over the OD of the threaded tube, meaning I have to go up in spring size to 60mm ID I think Question: what ID springs do people use with this Rebel Racing set up and do you find the springs rub on the threaded tube ? See below Thanks, Chris Attached thumbnail(s) |

I had thought about that, but was thinking that on a big bump, the damper could go up and hit the insulator plate/collar. This is it mocked up. I guess it will also depend on where the adjustable perch starts. Attached thumbnail(s) |
