Interesting but on my fixed end, I also have a tapered cantilever as well (so two total). Unlike the Dobinsons, the Billie is gas charged and I read it does not need to be positioned like the one pictured above.

These are tapered on both ends as well.

Ok I see now….saw this picture as well and I can see how it is oriented. I’ll make the switch tomorrow.

Would the stock hardware work on that end? What are you considering grinding down?

On that end of the shock, it is a prebuilt cantilever pin that cannot be removed. You can see it is a one piece/pressed unit. Could cut it off, but easier to slightly 1) enlarge hole in steering arm (just a hair) or 2) grind down the cantilever arm a hair to allow it to sit a bit more in the steering arm. I did take it for a test drive and it seems to work well I’m just not a big fan of the way that cantilever is sitting right now.
