Hey XRated, The shorter shocks do not change the ride height. I went for pedders comfort shorter shocks which cost $160 + $80 fitting + $50 bump stops which I didnt have. $290 for a pair of comfort not sports. Ripped off. Especially since the car doesnt ride any different except that the comfort shocks are probably a little softer than the Monroe gas I am trying to sell now. The issue only came up for RWC when I bought the car of a family member. The shocks had only just been done, but the mechanic wanted shorter shocks fitted. And then he didnt even check that I had them changed. So I am selling these shocks to recover part of the shocking price I paid for this excercise.
