As far as I understood it should be this...

hrmmm. That's what I thought, but when I set my shocks up to this based on someone's setup sheet I got next to nothing in ride height. No where near the 22mm listed. I had to put like 25mm of gap to get my ride height up. using the same springs also just in case you wondered :)

Unless this one setup sheet I was using had an error and it should of been 26mm in stead of 6mm. could be :)

Scrap that. Just checked the other sheets and the most they list is 9mm, but still a ride height of 20mm

I have to run a lot of preload on mine . 4 durangos at our club and all run different amount of preload

Big G 14-02-2011 12:42 PM

so the pre-load is the gap between the collar and the top of the shock then

I would just set your car to match ride height, don't worry so much about pre-load on the shocks

Big G 14-02-2011 01:40 PM

yeah I did cheers Chris. Car was awesome on the weekend too :)

Just reading this fella, check your droop screws on the rear wishbones as they would limit the ammount of rear ride height.

Big G 14-02-2011 03:12 PM

Yeah I checked these. the sheet said 2 turns. but with that much droop my driveshafts were at an insane level so I ran mine with 3 turns to be on the safe side.
