Rear shock query
 
I run into problems with the fitment of rear shock/spring on my build - 442 chassis with Rorty IRS at the back. This Rorty IRS, design specifically for the Siera diff & shafts to fit the 442 is nothing but problems and in error.
First time I needed to do mayor surgery to get the the Sierra bits to fit. Seems its deja vu again with the shocks.....:(

My question; with the car sitting on its wheels set to ride height, what is the approximate distance between the two shock eyes on your car - from upright bolt to chassis bolt?

Mine has only 200mm available when set to ride height :eek: and then the spring/shock must still travel from full bump to full droop :confused:
