Know I have found the limit to being TOO LOW.
I was running about 3 3/4" and it was having ill effects on the handling. Not to mention blowing out two sets of Koni's. 2nd set was with 21mm torsion bars. I have pics that suggest I was loading the suspension up against the bump stops. Now I am running Koni 8610 race shocks in shortened strut housings. I put a zip tie around the piston. I get to within 1/4" of the bump stop after a run on slicks. Static ride hieght is 4 3/4" front and 4 5/8" back. After a run the car remains nose down for 10 minutes or so. Koni holds the front down. |
