Ingalls torque dampener

hey just got my ingalls i dont know if its broke or not does this thing work like a shock with nice smooth action back and forth or not mine seems like there is slop in it(back and forth) about 1/8 of an inch or does it only dampen in one direction, and thats why u tension it?

should only dampen in one direction i think. you set the tension by measuring the distance it's open. Tells you in the manul.. Most people set it at 13mm. It should be stiff.

that's wierd. Mine doesnt have any in it at all. No matter how hard I try I can't make it move either direction.

i talked to ingalls today and they said it was supposed to be like that
so when this thing is working does the damper come together or spread apart?
