Cut perches on springs?
I have progress springs and I am getting them installed, do I have to cut the perches or not?

Thanks,


Eddie

If theyre just springs, then you shouldnt have to cut anything. I would trim down the bumpstops down about an inch each or whateva Progress recommends.

To answer my own question, it is that you have to cut the bumpstops directly in half.
