calmini shocks and stock
« on: January 22, 2007, 09:54:43 PM »
"The Rear shocks Calmini sells with the 2" track/kick  kit are exactly the same length as the stock shocks"

Is this true ???

I don't think so in fact I'm certain they're longer but I don't recall the length of the shocks on the 2" kit being listed here before. I know that you will find the length of the stock shocks if you do a search. How about you measure your shocks and post it up for future reference?

OME struts are 50mm longer than stock length, and OME rear shocks are 30mm longer than stock length.  They could be a little longer in the rear to allow for some more travel though...

Are you measuring length or travel? Usually we say length when we are referring really to travel. My OME struts have 40mm more travel than stock. I don't have rear OME shocks, my original spring lift ran Procomp shocks with 2" more travel..

I'm not measuring anything.  I'm reading it out of the OME application guide.

The shaft length of each should have the corresponding extra length over stockers.
