[quote author="@glenanderson" source="/post/2697773/thread" timestamp="1631809091"]Put one end of the shock in the vice, so it’s vertical. Hold the other end and try to pull it out and push it back in again quickly. If there’s a reasonable amount of resistance, then they’re worth refitting providing they compress enough to still work with the shorter spring.
If they have no resistance, or they’re too long, then hang fire on ordering any new shocks until the car is reassembled and at its final running height and weight before you fork out for replacements. [/quote]
Well, I nearly kinda screwed up there, makes sense waiting to see final riding height…..
Was going to order a standard set to go with the ONE COIL sacrificed.
These seem to have had it, one is rusted in place pretty much, one collapses to become a dumpy.
Almost weekend, counting down.
Soon.
