I am trying to adjust the rear hilos but the adjustable spanner just wont fit, so what size spanner do I need for the adjustment nut. Is it a 28mm?, they are the minispares cheapo Hilos.

It drives just like it did with rubber cones, except bumps and potholes are less harsh. With the shocks on their softest theres lots of suspension movement, the exhaust hanger actually scrapes on the ground when going round right hand turns even with a ride height of 60mm :shock:

Just use a large adjustable. That's what I did when I put HiLos on mine.

Thanks for that, I got a 30mm spanner and a less bulky adjustable spanner and managed to do it although it took ages :evil:
