So I have posted on this before and am still confused.
How much rear suspension travel should there be on a 6? 74 chassis 2.4L engine Springs appear to be 100 lb ones Shocks are Bilstein C clip at lowest setting No rear sway bar With this setup the car sat low - cool, but there was no rear suspension travel. It was stiff back there. I push down and there is no give. Now, maybe that is how it is supposed to be?? I remember my 4 having a little bit of rebound, but that was with 200lb less back there. So I am in the process of clicking up two spots on the Bilsteins to get some rebound back. Seems counter intuitive though. If I compress the spring more it will be more stiff. My thinking here is that there is now travel with two clicks up since before when down on the ground the spring and shock were already compressed so no suspension travel was left on the console and or the shock. Thoughts? |
