Hi all, I am putting the skid back together on my 85 Indy Trail, and I think I have an arm in upsidedown (although it came out this way). Does anybody else have one, and if so would you please compare my picture to the way yours is assembled? I have circled the arm in question. Everything seems locked up when I put it together this way...I think maybe the shocks should be on top...
Thanks!
Scott

I would start by removing one bolt at a time from the shocks to locate your sticking proplem I do remeber this happening to me on my 84 600 suspension wich looks idenctical to yours my front shock was stuck.

Hey
i actually have my suspension out of my 1990 indy 500. Not sure if it is the same suspension though. It kinda looks different. But I will take a picture when I am not busy and put it on here.

Thanks Gator! I use this sled to pull a pipe drag around the 5-mile loop behind Turkey Pond.
Have a great Thanksgiving all!

well here's my suspension. It looks much different than yours, but i guess you will still get an idea of the front shock and all.

And the other side
It looks like it's assembled right Scott,I'd do as posted above and look at the shocks for a bind.

Thanks for all the help guys. I agree that it looks like I have it together correctly. I'll pull the shocks out and see what I find.
Thanks again!
