i have an older b&s modified spring in front lr clamped shock behind. spring on top rr clamped shock behind. i have a coil over eliminator that i can put in front of rr and do away with spring on top. what if any advantage will i see by doing this. lr has no where to mont the coil over elimnator so i just thought i may try it out on rr.. car 4bar 4bar right now and has a zlink option on rr what do u all think would be a good place to start should i just leave it be or ?

move RR shock to the backside of the birdcage,If the shock is clamped
on the back of the RR you are dumping the RR to much.

I would put the coilover eliminater in front on the rr with the shock in back as you were thinking. just mout the shock to the birdcage not clamped to the housing. how is the spring located on the lr clamped in front with a wt jack?

the car will drive better and it won't be so skatey coming off the corner.

how fare in front of the axle tube center line is the spring on the left side? if I were to do anything on the left it would be put the spring on a coilover kit with the shock and clamp it up if your on a track with tight corners or mount behind the axle with bigger corners.
