    New lr assembly

    According to the pic, is it adjusted from both ends?

    Yes. But I am pretty sure one is for extension load and one for ride height load.

      When would you want 300lbs extend load

            Does racing really need this?

              It's just a pre-loader for a spring put on a coil-over shock. Same basic thing guys have asked about on here before for the RR but on the LR.

              say I take that 50# 20" spring and put on the pre-loader. I set the preload on it with it fully extended at 300# of load, then put on the shock. If I set the coil over nut on the shock so with the shock extended it's a 1/4" longer then the extended length of the pre-loader, then it will have 0 extended load and a gap when fully extended. But once the shock compresses that 1/4" it hits a spring with 300# of preload.

                what impresses me is there 5th coil over set up that is digressive , we had a discussion on here some time back about how to do this , never tried it but planning on trying it soon.......

                  I agree with FF, Advace seems to be really innovating some cool products.

                  This LR deal sure would make it nice to set up the car initially.

                  Just say no...

                    I helped a guy set one up. I had high hopes. He said it was trash. I even had Penske air dump numbers to try and match.

                      Does it come with tie rod ends to match my Gabriels?

                          Thanks billet i had assumed it was probably a pre loader but i was in vacation and my thoughts may have been a little clouded lol

                            So when would this be desirable? And how is this much different then just putting a 50lbs spring on the shock and cranking the coil-nut down to preload?

                              If all you have is a simple spring, you can set ride height load or extended load. The one you don't set is going to be whatever it comes out to with the spring you have. The above allows you to set them individually.
