Just noticed it's backwards can the shock company reverse the valving?

Nope, and there is a curve.
The top photo is at bump. The bottom at full droop. Not sure why you think it's backwards?

Cause I should have been sleeping instead of being on here! :ugh: I was using the the wrong point for pivot.

Working on cantilever shock design 3.0. I think I got it this time. Simplicity is the hardest thing to achieve in a design. At least my welding has improved with all the practice. I would post pics but my laptop crashed and I'm waiting for a replacement.

Apparently Photobucket has taken everyone's images hostage and unless you pay their $400 a year extortion rate, they will not release your photos. I uploaded my photos when they said it was free. Now they retroactively deny me the service they agreed to do. I wonder how long it will be until the lawsuits fly and someone is fired? Who thought this was a good idea? Bean counters will destroy the world if we let them.

yeah just ran into that myself. As a 'free' service they're probably safe from suit. It is indeed an attempted highway robbery, on the eve of a national holiday. And probably they've just committed corporate suicide. And compounded it by demanding payment of an annual fee up front. $400/yr to host images. When damn near everybody has 'free' storage space via their ISP and via their electronic devices. I've got 4 other places I can put images, not counting the discussion website I admin, which has 'unlimited' bandwidth and space.
I expect a huge exmigration from Photobucket. Can't imagine what their management was thinking with this no-notice coercive hostage-taking / attempted heist.
btw you have to download each sub-album separately to get all your images. Doing it at the top level just gets whatever random stuff you had there. I have / had 3700 images across multiple sub-albums, 13yrs worth. A few bucks would have been worth it. IF their product had better uptime and less clumsy upgrades. Now, at this late date to block access and demand $400? Screw'em.

Boooo photobucket. I just signed up for flickr, seems to be a nice platform so far.
