nice, when you get it done, you should post some nice pics of everything (how you routed the cables, what you changed, etc)

if i ever get around to locking my axles i'll be going that route also

heres some pics, this is as far as i got, tomorrow im going to try to get it all in. removed the c-clips and bored out the hole in the bottom of the fork so it would slide over it easy and then i put a spring over it. then i drilled a hole in the housing and another in the fork.
