Jim, that's great to know about keeping the wheels on, i am planning to bleed out the brakes, so the wheels are coming off anyways. but I think all the weight off the suspension (wheels off too) will make the caps really easy to turn. to fine tune the height i would plan to keep the wheels on for subsequent adjustments. Mongoose, i too had a contemporary, mine belonged to richard pickles who many of you know. It was a pleasure to own and drive, and it also had that stuffed tire look yours has.

But you gave me the most important state 26 inches does look very badass. I was going to target 25.75, but i think that 1 inch makes a huge difference - hard to believe.
