Sving / Irs rear Shock lenght

[puma-Alex]

Hello .

If we use a , 1972 model t1 as example .

Is the lenght of the rear shocks the same on both sving axle and IRS . ?

As i have converted my sving axle car into irs , and trying to use my " old " konis, They seem about 1.5 cm to short . This is when the springplate is in " resting " position . Car on stands .

One possible reason is that the irs spring plates are thinner " vertical way so to speak " . So they will take the car further down before they hit the metall in the frame , where the spring plate rests when jacked up / on stands .

Any inputs boys ?

regards

Puma .
