When I was installing the Front Coils & Shocks, I measured the Shock open length and compared to what I was quoted from EFS's Catalogue. To my disappointment, the open length was exactly the same between the old and new. So, I rang the place I obtained them from and chatted with the fella and he suggested trying some shocks from the Front of a 80's Cruiser. The open length of those were 615mm open and closed 365mm.
I've installed them and they suit perfectly with the Les Richmond Coils I bought. Even at full extension the coils are still being retained by the shock but I've also got much more travel now as well..... happy days.
Only issue now is that I've got speed wobbles between 80>90km/hr. I've got a new steering dampener fitted too. There was a small amount of speed wobble b4 the install but nothing that concerned me. After the install it's definitely been magnified so will need to find the problem and fix it.....
Open to people's ideas of what it may be and possible solutions......

Hit Cobaw on Monday to do a proper test of the new suspension. What a difference. Not much wheel lifting going on especially in the rear which was the worst part before whilst going down hill. Spring rates are bang on the money. Also completed Alcorns track which was the reason that made me go to a 35 last time I was there on 33s. Could not complete it last time. This time it was one run through. Also the puma 1LO is amazing. Crawled everything. Absolutely stoked with my suspension. Was there with a jeep on 37s and Dana 60's and I did Alcorns easier then him 😊
