    When it slicks off, you are going to want an "Easy Up" on the RF and a "Tie Down" on the LR, in general.

    Agreed.
    Try a 3/5 in the RF in the heat.

    Jeff;
    That is very interesting, are you wanting the LR to be immediately loaded when back on the gas for weight transfer? And off the throttle for corner entry immediately weight transfer to the right side.
    Do you have to change right side valving any when you remove L R shock? Or am I missing something?
    Thanks

    i thought that tie-down on the left rear was out dated, i'd go with an 8-2

    A holdup type shock like a 8/2 works on a link type car. Sucks on a leaf spring.
