Rear Droop with Lower springs

[Rik Perry]

I have been kicking aroung the thought that given a lot of owners are on lower rear ride height springs the standard damper will give too much droop ..
Do for example the Mark Fish Koni's account for this and have a shorter stroke ??
I was toying with the idea to Machine the damper shaft on the rear to insert 10mm or so further into the top rubbers and have a spacer on top to take up the difference..

Mark Fish springs on drop the rear a little abit, i dont think it is going to have a catastrophic effect

My sportlines dropped the rear quite a bit from std .. But it seemed high on the rear to start with .. Perhaps my rear springs were std 182 rather than cup .. i will check ..
Mine seems less able to pick the inside rear up now it's on the sportlines..

Ah, get your self some Mark Fish springs

The problem is not the springs ... it's the relationship between shorter springs and a std stroke length damper..
I might take 10mm off and see how it works ..
