Be careful when considering adjustable perch shocks. Recently, I bought a pair
of front SPAX shocks with adjustable perches for my Race Spit. When I
got them I realized that the adjustments started at the stock Spitfire height
and went up. The result is that I could raise the car by adjusting the
perches but could not lower it.
I sent them back and shortened the springs!
