Here is the strut fully extended. That is an 8 spring. So there is about 7 of damper (shock) sticking out of the strut. When installed and set at a ride height of 25 measured at the fender lip the is about 1 1/2 of that damper sticking out of the strut. So less the. 2 of travel on that damper? Ride height measured by the height of the torsion bar center line to the height of the center of the wheel method. Was 148mm so 40mm lower than standard. I raised the height of the torsion bar. Now it has a fender lip height of 26. And a torsion to wheel center height of 127mm. Still 20mm lower the standard. And the damper now protrudes about 2 1/4. So I guess what I dont get is. Out of the 7 or so of static travel you only get 2 when installed??
