Do they tighten up over time? Seems like they'd just get looser....which would be better, right? Ryan

Best to have them dynoed once a year. Most compitent chassis shops (drag or oval) have shock dynos.------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,&'03 Fleet of FoMoCo products including 88 ASC McLaren Mustang #28 Professional Manwhore The Barry of BarrysGrrl Quote #1: "I never met a magazine mechanic I liked."

Ryan, most shops do it for free or coffee. I have never been charged, although we always take ours to Strange Eng. ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,&'03 Fleet of FoMoCo products including 88 ASC McLaren Mustang #28 Professional Manwhore The Barry of BarrysGrrl Quote #1: "I never met a magazine mechanic I liked."

Alex, Do most shops have the "specs" for how the shocks should 'dyno'? Or, do I / can I get the shock specs from the shock manufacturer and take that data with me to the dyno?Thanks again,,, Ryan

C&E (same as the Summit) will send you the data if you e-mail them Ryan. Most of the chassis guy know where they need to be based on rebound anyway. They are usually testing shocks daily. Especially the oval track guys.------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,&'03 Fleet of FoMoCo products including 88 ASC McLaren Mustang #28 Professional Manwhore The Barry of BarrysGrrl Quote #1: "I never met a magazine mechanic I liked."
