Installed the "old" Hotckis TVS 1/2 drop and sway bars. Readjusted the sway bar links and now I need the shocks.

Do I get the TC-1538P for the front & TC-1610P for the rear, or get the MU-7855P for the rear? Do I need shock extenders? Or just the Heim kit? Fill me in!!!!

Thanks

Neil

BTW Now that I have this kit, I have some of my old suspension that I'm ready to get rid of!!!

 

You need to measure the length from t-bar to pocket in the front and bolt center to pocket in rear. These measurements can be used to determine which lenght shock is correct for you.

For the front:

TC-1538-P 10.25"-15.5" at ride height 13.4"= 60% compression
TC-1958-P 9.38"-14.38" at ride height 12.38"= 60% compression


For the rear:

TC-1610 14.5"-23.5" at ride height 19.9"= 60% compression
MU-7855 13"-20.5" at ride height 17.5"= 60% compression

QA-1 recommends the piston being 60% compressed at normal ride height. You also have to make sure the compressed distance will not bottom out the shock before you hit the bump stops.
