Anyone know of anyone making adjustable preload caps for the 45mm Shivers on my 2006 SM610?
Thanks in advance for any info.

Hi everyone,
As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.
When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.
Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.
Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.
Thanks for your patience and support!

Can be done with spacers under the existing caps.

I suspect he means externally adjustable, via a threaded portion.
Ross, I am not aware. It is a cool idea. Just need to make sure you don't adjust the rebound at the same time by accident!

Kyle's got it. Yes the rebound clicker would have to be a part of it. My kTM 950 has such caps and they're mighty convenient for initial set and fine tuning and great for setting things to work better for 2 up riding. Not really doing any 2 up riding on the Husky though, so the need isn't huge.
