Yep it does indeed and I never noticed the shock absorber thing as I have not built a roadster up to a rolling chassis. I built a chassis to make the bodywork and that was all i was interested in. If I had intended to build a car and then come across the inch extended dampers then I would have wanted to know why as it doesn't do anything for the damper other than make it longer.
