Default Re: 69 Camaro custom shock height

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: ban617</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> You may have use shock extensions with a gas shock just to get the travel you need ..Cause otherwise with a stock length shock it maybe topped out ....I don't know where you would find a longer stock type shock there's not many places that have books with lengths anymore ... Maybe a Napa would have a Monroe book with lengths ?</div></div>
Seems like the Napa around here has gone the way of Autozone. &quot;Let's go to the computer.&quot; &quot;Is that SS396 a V8 or a V6?&quot; lol... I might give one of the bigger shock companies a call and see what their thoughts are. Here's a couple of pics of how the shackles currently sit. My guess is the springs might even be slightly longer than stock specs to make up for the higher arch. Just a guess though. The first pic looks like the spring is scuffing the frame rail, but that was just from the install.
