hey gez,
Been researching and thinking about how to best calculate the
appropriate shock absorbers/coil over springs, etc. for the front and
rear of my Tumbler and DOJ Batmobile.

For my Tumbler and DOJ Batmobile

Rule one: The finished weight of a Bat Vehicle, my Tumbler and DOJ
Batmobile in particular, is an unknown factor needed to accurately
calculate shock and coil-over spring rates, travel, diameter, and
eight, or so, other variables.

Given, the un-certainty of the final weight I plan to use stand-in
proxy shocks while I build the rest of my Tumbler around them and the
same for my DOJ.

I know from my research that four Tumblers after being finished
required multiple trials with shock and coil-over spring combinations
before they finally got them right.

hey gez,
Here is some shock absorber and coil-over spring information that might be of some use to you.

Shock Absorbers and Coil-Over Spring Calculations
There are many shock absorbers with coil-over spring plug in
calculators on line. The best I have found, so far, are related to the
Off-Road shock and spring guides.

One of the best is found at:

CRAWLpedia – The Off Road Encyclopedia
www.crawlpedia.com

Performance off-road racing shocks, like those available from King,
Fox, and Bilstein, are designed to be easily rebuilt and custom tuned.

valving works and how shims are used to adjust compression and rebound
damping.

hey gez,
It has been a while. Was just thinking about your Tumbler build.
Solved the rear tire and wheel issues we had discussed.
How has your Tumbler progressed? vertigo
