Running S/S springs on my ‘72 Demon.
I know Mopar Performance makes the long shock for the rear - does anyone make a long aluminum bodied shock (such as QA1) that is adjustable?
ALlso, do I need a longer flexible brake hose for the rear since the SS springs lift the body away from the axle?

Thanks all!

Wally.

You could dearch your SS springs. Then use a stiff shock to control the lift.

If the lift is uncontrolabled, the tire will unload.

Yes, everyone out there makes longer shocks. I'd recommend you call them and talk to a tech to get the proper part numbers for this.

yes, you want a longer flex hose as the SS springs will create even more separation under accelleration than they already do sitting there.

TC!
That's what I was assuming, thank you for verifying!
