Abstract
An adjustable suspension system which has a shock absorber affixed to the suspension system, a movable sealing piston located within a shock absorber for sealing fluid and a suspension adjuster connected to the shock absorber for moving fluid between the adjuster and the shock absorber. A conduit connects the suspension adjuster and the shock absorber. The conduit also includes a hose connecting the suspension adjuster with the shock absorber. A shock housing is adjacent to and outside the shock body. The shock housing surrounds the periphery of the shock body. The shock housing and the shock body define a passageway for fluid. The shock body has a portion that defines at least one port hole between the shock cap and the sealing piston. The shock absorber includes a fluid chamber defined by a shock cap, a shock body, and the sealing piston.
