Suspension limiting

[Longroof68]

I am installing a builder kit from A.R.T. and have a question reguarding how you limit travel for when the cars jacked up. Do i install shorter shocks or use a limiting strap? Or do i just let the bags take the weight of the drooping suspension - won' t that blow a bag out??? Thanks , Michael

If you aren' t using shocks or limiting straps to prevent the bag from being over extended, you need to allow the bag to be able to hang free when the suspension is unloaded. You also need to be sure to reduce the line pressure in the system when the suspension is unloaded.

You need to make sure either the shock or the a limiting strap is capturing the shock from overextending. It will rip the spring apart if it is not captured.
