    Default Second Gen Spring Rates

    Hi Guys,

    What are the average spring rates you guys are using front and rear. How about spring lengths? We purchased a set of AD shocks from a guy the quit on his Prod project. Emailed Ground Control with the numbers to get an idea of valving.
    The official answer is that "There is not much info about those shocks. Looks like its a fairly basic valving that should work for a wide range of springs usually used on a second gen".
    Where should we start?

    Thanks Eric

    Basic starting point is 400F/250R. Most off the shelf shocks are incapable of damping much more.

    Most of those shocks use 10" front and 8" rear. We run 8" all around.
