Hi All --
Have run into a small problem. Trying to convert the rear dampeners to shocks. All of the other posts reference the conversion starting with a semi-elliptical car (1965 and on). I have a 1964 & 1/4 elliptical setup.
Has anyone done the conversion with a 1/4 elliptical setup ? And so -- what shocks did you use ? I've called Monroe / Gabriel & Shockshopusa.com -- all without a workable answer. The space is just too small.
Need a fully compressed shock in the 7" to 8" range (mid range = 10" to 10.5"). Any small and I can use a hood strut :<))
Have read a few past posts @ Monroe # 5877R. Fully compressed is 10.5. Just too tight. Great for semi -- no good for 1/4.
Thanks for your help.
