Yes, you should have a limiting device like a chain on the LR. It can damage the shock by using it as a travel limiter. A shorter chain will take drive and side bite out of the car, and a longer one will give you more side bite by raising the CG so it rolls harder, and also gives more J bar angle and forward drive by increasing bar angle and dynamic wedge TO A POINT. If you go too far you will roll steer the car too much and it will loosen the car up.
