Not much help with the search so here we go. Two part question.
Have a D30 front and D44 rear. The D44 has raised and clearenced shock mounts. I have some old crappy DT3000's on now. Random springs front and rear. I have access to a ramp and want to measure out my bumpstops and shocks for a perfect set up. I use this vehicle as a daily driver over pot hole roads. Also wheel hardcore rocks several times a year.
1) Is there any write-ups or info out there on how to measure correct shock length?
2) Opinions on the best shocks.
Rubicon Express Mono tube - Advantage over OME with Nitro steel piston rods.
OME - Advantage over most with the metal shield preventing piston rod damage.
Bilstein - Seems like a compromise between OME and RE.
Edelbrock - Seems like they should've stuck to race cars. But then again what do I know.
Others???
