can anyone put up a picture of an NB shock with all the parts on them including the top hats, I just need to check that I have all the nessesary bits and that they are assembled on the shock in the right order. I am putting NB shocks and springs in my NA so looking at my NA suspension while it is still in the car does not give me a very good idea. as they say a picture says a thousand words. thanks.

When using NB dampers on an NA, does it change the ride height of the car?

Ie. Is the distance from the centre of the bottom mount bush to the spring seat the same with both ?


Thanks in advance.

The car will site higher, and (because the rear shocks are longer) will bottom out sooner.
