    Flexy coils shock choice

    G'day all have fitted a set of sus stuff flexy coils to my '93 200tdi and am just wondering what others have done in terms of shocks? I've got extended brake hoses coming for it so I was thinking a 3" longer shock with a set of lowered shock mounts but I'm unsure if this combo will work? Would love to hear other people's experience with these springs.
    Cheers

    I have the same coils in my '96 (for +100kg from memory) with 24.5" procomp shocks which = +3". The front doesnt flex enough to reach travel limits of the shocks but the rear will fully extend without dislocating (only 20mm or so in it) and compress far enough to push the tyre(235/85/16) so it rubs against the top of the wheel arch

    G'day mate thanks for the reply sounds like a good setup you've got! I've got onto a set of 5" shocks I might try with some dislocation cones and see how that goes.
