C4mby 0 Posted July 23, 2003 Can anyone tell me the overall (totally extended) length of a front coil-over suspension strut? From top mount to the top mounting hole. I'm having a few problems with fitting a 6-speed gearbox. I've had to make a shorter drive shaft for the passenger side, the shock extends too far down so that the inner CV does not have enough articulation. I was wondering if by fitting a coil-over set-up that the shock would not extend as far. Any ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bazgreener 0 Posted July 23, 2003 my fk coilovers are much shorter (fully extended) than std shocks. Will measure tonite if you want. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
endor71 0 Posted July 25, 2003 Can you supply pictures of the work in progress? What 6 speed box is it (golf 4? Seat Leon?) Interested in the whole 6 speed box thing, improved ratios etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
