wow thats a huge difference, lol its looks funny
Shock body would probably be easiest...just something to get it up out of the way of the axle. Or if it is broken, just go to a good welder and have them fixed.
I like them, not to harsh compared to other companies/applications. :iono:
what can i do to soften it? or do i just have to live with it? you think FK's would be better?
From what I have read FK's would probably be better but I know both spring rates to compare. Spring rates are what solely determine the ""stiffness" in a cars ride. When adjusting the ride height you are changing the amount of rebound the shock will have, this could create harshness when bottoming out, but will not affect stiffness.I like them, not to harsh compared to other companies/applications. :iono:

then new endlinks
Where did you get those endlinks? Website and how much?
soo... read through most of this thread and seems like they're worth the buy (with some FK endlinks?)... anyone in NJ or NY have these? Our area is pretty rough and wanna know if they have held up well or you.. thanks!

wrong.
Sorry, spring rates are what solely determine the ""stiffness" in a shock/spring combo seeing that preload does not effect the spring rate. Of course you can weld in a 21 pt. cage and have the car feel like it is riding on no rubber there are other factors that contribute to the whole car, I was addressing his concern with the ride quality do to Racelands.wrong.
and again I'll reiterate, you don't need to buy new endlinks, the endlinks have nothing to do with the breaking issue, its a structural weakness in the arm, shortening the endlink may not "hurt" the suspension but if you put it in certain positions it could cause your swaybar to ride on your axle.
