I have just switched my car over to a baseline setup recommneded by the shock company. 75 across the front and 94 across the back. The car had a 95-3 on the left rear 94 right rear and 73-5 across the front. My question is this, this car is a double swingarm z linked both sides. Coil spring mounted on the arms and shocks on the birdcage behind both sides. They call for a 93-5 on the left rear on swingarm cars and a 95-3 for 4 link. What would having the wrong valving (95-3 instead of 93-5) do to the car? Where do most locate the springs and shocks on swingarm cars? Thanks

Well my guess is with the 4 bar they are trying to keep the car up on the bars on the left rear. Not sure why you wouldn't want to do that with the swing arm.
