I have the chance to buy a 185x55 Trunion Ohlins TTX2 rear shock. It is 7mm slimmer than the Fox X2 (which doesn't fit) so I know it fits, but has anyone put one on their Amflow?

Just wanted some advice?

Thanks in advance.

How the heck did you fit a TTX1? The wide “V” instead of the tight “U” shape of the shock eye on the TTX1 trunnion mount shock meant that I literally had to break out the dremel tool to cut back some of the metal on the shock link (nothing structural, just some weird metal shape to the link’s casting to tightly fit the shock eye).

😂 I didn’t do my research and thought they were going to be the same shock basically with 2 different tunings but turns out they are completely different shock eye designs!

Oh well, the shock is mounted up now, but let this stand as a warning to folks who want to go Ohlins and do not want to grind metal away on their bike hardware.
