Here's some very cheap DIY pre-load rings.
These are made from standard UK overflow pipe connectors

Cut to the length required and slot down the side

They simply slip on to the shock with a perfect fit.

1" ID is way too big bud! these are 21.5mm tight fitting PVC plastic and will work well.

I should have explained.... I cut it to the required length and removed the nescessary ammount to get it to fit properly on the shock body, and i secured it in place with 2 zip ties.

clubin also forgot to mention he has the MMT so shock bodies are a bigger diameter

I've seen 2 sets of shocker for the TB2, 1 with threaded bodies and 1 without -
1, how much are the threaded bodies?
2, other than the bodies and adjusters, are the rest of the shocker components the same for both types?
Cheers, Mike
