Default Cat SX2 front shocks fouling on tower

Hi all,

Sorry if this repeating an old question, as Im sure it cant just be me experiencing this problem, but I tried searching and couldnt find any answer.

At last race, I wanted to drop the suspension flatter, but when trying to move the shock to the INNER hole on the shock tower, the top of the shock cap fouled on the tower itself.

With the shock cap now up tight against the tower, this meant the shocks couldnt rotate around when the wheel & wishbone moved up and down. i.e. the suspension was useless.

It was a brand new tower, and when looking at the old one that I removed, I could see where the carbon had been "flattened" obviously by the same thing happening under heavy impacts.

What am I doing wrong, as at the moment, if I run the shocks anything less than middle holes, I get this fouling problem.

Thanks again guys.

Cardnim <--- yes, Im a noob
