    Guys with no rear adjusters

    Are you guys running limiting straps in the rear or what is the plan to keep the spring from running away? I'm running rear shocks with a 20" extended length (KYB 98 Camaro) and I know the springs are not captured under full droop when jacking the rear of the car up with my adjusters in place. Am I being overly paranoid?

    If I want to run no adjuster (or even now... really) then I've reasoned my options out to the following:

    Limiting straps
    Move to shocks that have a shorter extended length (16" - KYB 94 Mustang)
    Rear shock mounts that are extended upward
    Combination of the above?

    Any other ideas or something I'm overlooking?

    Why are you running a damper with so much added length? Are you going to see anywhere near that much droop when running? I doubt it, so I'd just make sure your springs are lined back up properly with the perches when dropping it back down.
    Just a little project im working on

      They are shorter than stock, which is 21.5" or so extended. Will I see that much droop? That's what I'm asking.
