x6 suspension travel

hi guys

right i have just fitted the bk2 axles to my x6 and fitted the suspension back on only problem is when the suspension is compressed the driveshaft hits the white diff nut thing therefore not getting full travel on one side

cheers paul

Hey Paul,
There are two ways to solve this, as this is a normal problem.

1) Put external spacers on the rear shock shafts, so they bottom on the body before the driveshafts hits the diff. Driveshaft hitting the diff can snap the dogbones.

2) Redrill the BK2 Axle so the pin is further back by 2mm - this still gives enough bone into outdrive, but cures the limitation of suspension travel.

or jiggle the spacers about inside and out on the drive shaft

Just spacer it on the outside of the shocks.
