Default Reversed rear shock position on Atomised B44

How many people have tried it with the shocks on the back of the shock tower and the tower moved back etc, and how did you find it?

Also, to do it do you just slide the mount backwards to the rear holes, and put the shocks on the back, or is there more to it than that?

Thats all you do dave!! I think i'm one of the only ones who ran with the shocks on the front, i found the car slightly twitchier(i like) but it did suffer very slightly on the bumps compared to when they are rearward. Give it a go, you may likey likey!!

Hi guys,
Can you explain to me how you do when drilling the holes in the rear arms for mounting the shocks on the back?
I have serious problems getting everything to line up when I do the good old "drill-through" from the front holes.

Any tips/suggestions/advise is appreciated.

I tried the shocks in front and in the back, I very much prefered them on the back.

And I got JC to drill my holes on the wishbones!!!!
