Shock locating tab
#1
On pretty much every 306 shock i have seen, there has been a T shaped locating tab on the rear to locate the shock in the hub. On the standard shock and my B4s and the cheap chinese coil overs, they seat in the hub with probably 3-5mm of space left in the bottom of the hub however my B8s have about 10-15mm gap at the bottom yet the locating tabs are sitting home where they should be. I was considering cutting the sides off the T so its just like a I so i can drop it further into the hub which should be more secure and also drop the car a little bit more. Anyone see any reason why i cant do this?
