Rear shock question...
I purchased a set of coil overs (Pro Shock brand) from CRII just before they went poof. Thinking they would know what I needed, I put all my faith in them. Parts were delivered and installed and have been on the car for some time. A mechanic had my car on the lift recently and noticed the rear end dropping so far the springs were well off their perches and mentioned it to me that that wasn't right and either I need straps to limit the drop or my shocks are too long. I have not noticed them to bottom out but they are a little springy on certain types of bumps in the road where I bounce up in my seat only to be held down by the seat belts. How can I determine if they are right or not? Part numbers? Or is there a method to figure it out? Thanks!
