Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension

If someone didn't want quite as much drop, could the Vikings be subbed out for an inch or two taller coilovers?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

The Vikings come in different lengths, just give NLE a call. They have enough knowledge that they can confirm whether your concern is real and order you the right part.

You select the coilover length for the ideal amount of travel at ride height given your suspension mounting points. You don't want the shock to be your travel limitation, and generally you want to maximize stroke (longest shock possible). Increasing the static ride height doesn't always alter your bump stop and shock mount location, and therefore may not decrease your shock length as you may expect.
