[Silly Little Cars] 93' GO-4 REAR SHOCK

[bugnut at windstream.net]

Bruce,
Does the 93 have springs over the shocks?
I know my 96 does.
The replacement shock for it, I believe, is the same as a Polaris Sportsman 400L.
I think the springs are available in different stiffness and are the same as the Polaris also.
Of course 2 are required for the Go-4’s. Oh, the shocks are adjustable too.
My 96 is leaning to the right, so I’m going to replace both, springs maybe.
Hope this helps,
Mike

I noticed the rear shock in the engine compartment on my 93' was fully compressed so I took it out to replace. Of course it is not made anymore but in trying to figure it out the shock itself seems fine but is fully compressed when on the vehicle no matter if it were new or not! It would seem like it would not work or do anything if installed in compressed state. Does anybody know why? What would happen if I cut the bottom clamp down a bit, drilled a new hole, and installed a different shock than the original that was not compressed after install?
