Default RE: Another large scale Impreza project

Okay, i did not know the shock is mounted like that.... On some 1:1 cars the damper is like an insert in the mcpherson struts, the damper inside the strut, and the shockrod is moving up and down.
On the WRC cars and on mine, the shockrod is inside the strut, bolted in the bottom. And the damper, with the oil inside is moving up and down. And i tryed to force the damper to see about the flexing, and it looks ok for now....
I see you point with the oil seal between the damper and the tube.....
