I think 425 is a good open length,  Check the open length issue thread.

[gertje]

The openlength issue talk 395mm

[2-20]

395 is the issue ... They are too short and need to be lengthen otherwise there is not enough drop.

Can you check that you have contact with the bumpstop and show the bumpstop arrangement.

Yes they are correct open lengths when used without helper springs

[gertje]

I don't understand it. When i set them at oem hight te springs are loose +\- 1,5 cm

I don't understand it. When i set them at oem hight te springs are loose +- 1,5 cm

 

If the spring is loose it's because the shock travel is stopped.

Please confirm if the bumpstop is in contact with the shock body

No the schok body is not on the bump stop.

[siztenboots]

this is with a 8" spring on a 40 series damper , ride height 125mm with 17" wheels
 

[gertje]

The springs are loose when the car is of the ground.

[gertje]

You see your old ones are schorter then my new

[2-20]

The springs are loose when the car is of the ground.

 

OK i understand.

 

Your issue is that you need helper spring.

 

It's possible that the former user was using them 

[gertje]

I just contact the former owner he told me that this is my problem not his. He say that this expalation is sh*t and won't help me. Are these helper springs for sale by Nitron?
