    Your pictures are so large because you're uploading them at 940 x 637 pixels. You need to resize them before you post them. Cut them down to 640 x whatever before posting.

    How about using the same bushing GM used on the trailing links on the 60s - 70s GTOs, Chevelles, etc.?

    I would use a 1:1 ratio. Then you're not fiddling with your shock rates.

    Also, you'll have to mount your shocks upside-down, won't you?

    I will look into the GM bushings, thanks.

    Upside down? I hadnt thought about that. Why upside down, or are you messing with me?

    If I'm looking at the drawing right, they should still compress when the rear end housing goes up.
