Hi folks!
I've seen a few videos and posts on Reddit where shocks on a new Kraton 6s v6 were detached during bashing for no apparent reason. As I am preparing my new v6 to her first bash, this is one of the things I look at.
There is a nice big washer used in the assembly. It "eats" quite some space, so the nut has less bolt length to attach to. Was wondering if this washer is really necessary there? Can it be safely removed to give more bolt length to the nut?
Or, perhaps, a lock washer would make sense? So that things don't fall apart during a bash.
Any thoughts are appreciated, thank you!
