| Post subject: | hydo shocks setup? |
attempting the shocks setup from forum "how to" and was just wondering as i already have the adjustable shocks  , and it says on "HOW TO" only use stock shocks....... is it realy that big a deal. i figure that they 'ed be right.
Adjustable arms on the front of the car, will the putting of shocks on the front affect anything going on there, i.e. with the camber??? Also, competion bump stops are going on aswell... is that difficult to do... anyone got some advice. just not sure

I've been told not to bother with the comp bump stops at the front, too big and bulky, and you'd be riding on them all the time I'd imagine that adjustable shocks would only be a problem if they were lowered versions, but ... dunno 
wouldn't expect any difference in camber etc. as you're only altering the damping, not the ride height |

Hydro suspension already iS a shock absorber so you don't want TOO much extra damping. This is why people suggest that standard dampers are enough - and that maybe the uprated dampers are too much. Dampers have no impact on suspension geometry. Cheers, Ian |

Yep I have front and rear Comp Bumper stops. I got rid of the fronts after a Month...only do the rear..just like a rear sway bar |

I have competition bump stops on the front of my car, and I'm going to take them off. It rides on them pretty much all the time, and the ride is pretty harsh. They were put on because the front end geometry was a bit screwy, and with any height the car was all over the road. Now I've sorted that with some adjustable arms, I'm going to try standard bump stops again and see how that goes. |

Adjustable shocks should be OK on front if you wind em back to minimum. If ya got em, try em.
