Not sure exactly, im runnng avo shorter dampers and these allow me to run 30mm + lower so would say 20mm on std length dampers. Sure someone else can be more definate |

You'll be fine. I run the standard height shocks. I run the fronts 5mm off the bumpstop and the rear at a height that keeps the front-to-back ratio the same.

I would aim to have the damper halfway out when the car is at the chosen drive height. I shot a seal or something in one of my old spax (std. height) when running slammed, the oil leaked out at the adjuster screw…

Speaking of Dampers i recently saw a mini that had the dampers leaning into a slot that had been cut out of the bulkhead. The dampers were leaning at something like 35 deg.

The problem with the mini suspension is that the front shock mount is in such a place that the shock moves very little (it's even worse for the doughnut).
