Hey guys,

Here is the prob. I put a set of super low kings on my 95 EF with the stock shocks bout 3 months ago. Everything was fine (although car was floaty as f***) so i decided to get a set of HD shocks.

As soon as i put these new shocks on i have been experienning vibration comming from the rear of the car between 40-60kmh and again at bout 80-85kmh, but only when accelerating or decelerating (car coasts no worries). It is worse with extra weight in the car (people/fuel)

wondering what you guys think.

Ya cant really 'give it a go'
You'll either have to change to an EL diff and use XR arms
Or get some aftermarket ajustables.

Or the back yard way and re'drill the upper mounts.

I solved my problem of tail shaft hitting the tunnel with EL XR uppers and changed them to no XR's.

most ppls results are the opposite.
