Subject:      Rear coilovers & Procomp shock mounts at BurleyMS
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Since the shock isn't concentric with the spring, my gut feel is that even though they look a bit odd at full droop, they are probably ok. I would only worry about it if I were lowering the van and the shock allowed enough travel that the springs might fall out. I'm looking at this from a 2WD standpoint, though, as I've never seen a Syncro . My Carat rears will rattle around at full droop, so I'd want to make sure the springs stayed put with the Burley setup. I would think the selection of 2.5" springs would vast from a place like TrueChoice, etc. (If they're still in business!)
