Ride height
What are the options in adjusting ride height on a ladder bar car. I changed shocks (same length) but my car sits 1 1/2 lower in the rear than before. Nothing else was changed.

Re: Ride height
Ed, You didn't mention if you used the same springs ,or replaced them? ....Possibly a different rate spring than previously on the car? ..... Also, did you check the spring platform height? Most shocks have at least 1 1/2 to 2" adjustment there, Altho that should only be used to set the loaded length of the shock,cranking it too far will cause suspension travel issues...... I would remove one of the new shocks for a closer side by side comparison to one of the old shocks ..........Tom
