So think mine arrived yesterday but missed the post. Need to try and get the mrs to collect tomorrow. Looking forward to getting them on the car! So as a rough rule of thum you just set the heights as per tot eh height of the cill and then adjust the setting to suit. Going to book it in for a full set up at kenny Browns in Hillington Glasgow who gets a great name for corner weighting and track prep etc. thanks again tux for arranging.

Hi, I followed Tux's advice and wound until the spring stopped rattling then another 10mm on each corner, I just set them with a vernier to get them close, it worked out the car was about 3/4 inch too high all round but it was fine to run around with for a 100 miles or so before I took it and had it corner weighted, they set the correct ride height then. They are brilliant, still trying to work out the best bump and rebound settings but so much better than before.

Hi,

I Got the shocks 4 weeks ago, but car has been at Jetstream for gearbox rebuild, hopefully it should be ready next week; So I intend to fit the shocks at first opportunity. In preparation what size & length bolt is needed to fit the top and bottom mount??

I just reused the existing bolts & nuts.
