Pfadt adjustable inverted shocks with lowered vette??
Good day everyone. I am about to have a set of used Pfadt adjustable shocks installed with my C6 z51 sways on my 98 coupe. My car is lowered about 1.25" in rear and about 1" in front.
Would I bottom out with these shocks as I do with the stock F45 suspension?

I did some checking and they are 1" shorter. The stock shocks will bottom at about 1.5" to 2" below below the stock ride height so the Pfadt should give you about 1" more travel. You'll hit the bump stop at around 2.5" to 3" below stock ride height. Being lowered 1.25" means you should get 1.25" to 1.75" of compression travel.

Month old but:
According to Pfadt, down on stock bolts would be ok, but after market lowering bolts not so much...
I pick up a used set and had questions about the condition of the bump stops so I contacted Pfadt....
