Just something about fitting big bores, I am going to try BB springs on TRF shocks on my TRF201. With Durango springs (and custom adjusters) it will fit on the front it seems, on the rear I will have to make some clearance for it (the rear turnbuckle is very close even to the SB springs).

The solution could be XV-01 rear uprights (the one with the many holes on top). First though I'll move to short ball studs again: the blue ones fitted on the rear hubs in the kit are alu and wear away just looking at them so I switched to others - that I recently found out have a larger offset. That's why I had my doubts about the possibility of running BB springs/shocks on a 201. I'll test if this is sufficient If that doesn't work I may shave a tiny bit of material off the hubs and the rear tower (both parts that haven't broken so far in my ownership) and use a shim/spacer where the damper mounts on the suspension arm.
