    Stock Hennessy suspension question

    Hi All,
    Can anyone supply or link to a photo/video/diagram of the way the stock suspension is attached to a Explorer Ultralight with the two hole attachment point? I've had mine apart for too long and want to make sure I put it back together again.
    Thanks so much in advance.

    I've e mailed Hennessy. Their answer is for me to send it in for them to reattach the stock suspension. Sigh. Not acceptable. It's not rocket science. But that pesky liability...

    Somebody has the answer right in front of them.

    Please.

    I think Dutch was collecting pictures a while ago. You might PM him. I also think there have been pictures posted but I do not know who did it. Good luck with your search.

    FWIW I did a quick search for converting a Hennessy to Whoopee slings and found this site with pictures of the old suspension. I think you can use it to get what you want:

    Thanks. I've seen those photos. Tying the bowline in the small cord does not seem right. I'll PM Dutch. Thanks.

    For others who search for this topic;

    I'm guessing you could look at this video to see how it's attached also, before they replace it with whoopies

    Personally though, I'd say that my set up is much lighter and easier to use now that I've replaced the stock suspension with whoopies, so I would recommend that to anyone with a Hennessy
