I'm guessing your refering to axle tramping.. I would say you have a spring that is slightly shorter than the other but I don't think the shorter spring will cause tramping.. Your shocks wont effect ride height. There are other people on here that have experienced tramping that may be able to help out.

Mine tramps awfully in wet and dry. I'm getting king springs fitted tomorrow (was sposed to get them today but they 'didn't have the right tool' (dickheads) so we'll see how that goes...

I'd book into a suspension place and get them to have a look. They're the pros and they'll fix the problem :thumbsup:

When I got Bilsteins fitted today, the suspension guy said the R Specs actually have reasonable springs in them and its the shocks that lets them axle tramp. He reckons they re-valve the Bllies for hign powered Tees and FPV sreet & drag cars to stop it. A lot of lowered cars tramp and also vibrate because the angle of the CVs changes and they break easier too. I had a lowered Pedders setup in my first BA Phoon, it tramped much worse, vibrated and was lower on the rear passenger side. I put it back to normal height and then the rear passenger spring used to knock beacuse it was out of round. WA suspensions ended up fixing it
