monroe shocks not seating right


Recommended Posts

i recently bought two brand new rear shocks for the starlet i went about fitting the weitec rear springs that were in my old shocks and they shorter i didn't need to clamp them so i went and picked up a set of standard springs off

spikeyJP on here and even they were to short to take up the extra room the shocks had to the top mount

am i right in thinking there's a difference between the shocks in damper rod length any rear shocks ive fitted springs to usually need mild force pushing down on top mount while fitting the top nut

mines have about an inch and a half of travel before the top mount sits on the spring the weitec spring were about 2 inches

even with the standard springs the car still sits like its lowered are my rear shocks wrong and to long
