so i just ordered my SS and thinking of where im going to put the switches. started thinking and im going to try and run them off the turn single switches. i dont have blinkers so there just dead switches anyways. has anyone done this or is there any reason it wont work i think it would be bad *** if i can pull it off. let me know

 

Well, I'm not sure if the signal switches would work. The switches for the ss are toggle switches. Each one controls air in and out. Since the turn signs are a unidirectional switch you may have to engineer something to make it work. However... If you got it to work, it would be sweet!

 

Mounted mine under the seat, used 2 cable ties, easy to reach and can be removed with out a trace.

 

Where's Tbone?

 

Mine are mounted in the usual spot, above the horn. Would you happen to have more close up pics and explain how exactly you mounted them that way. I like that idea. OP, sorry to hijack.

 

OP your turn signal switches are one position switches meaning on or off. The shotgun switches are 2 positions meaning up is powered, centered is off, and down is powered. Basically you would have to replace the switches in your controls. I am sure someone could do it but would require much fab work and I am not sure the results would be worth it. Mine are above the horn in the normal location and are easy to mount and hard to see when parked. They are also easy to reach and operate when riding.

 

I put mine on top of the tank.

 

Ok i was kind of thinking it would be a 2 way switch. I know when i put bags on my friends truck there was some kind of converter or something that took the 2 way out. He used a xbox game controller to make air in/out. Why is there 2 switches with the SS? You would think it only needs one going up\down

 

You have a 2 way switch for each side of the shock. One switch controls rebound air in/out. And the other for compression. There is quite a few write-ups about the operation of it on here somewhere if you search for it.

 

I just left mine in their "default" location, mounted to the horn bolt.
Those micro-switches are very delicate and it wouldn't take much to snap one - besides they're not easily replaced.
Where I have them now, they're still readily accessible even when moving, and they're definitely out of harm's way...

Actually, both switches control height, rebound and compression.
They just control opposite ends...
