Default DA Koni Yellow Rear Shocks on Ef?

I was wondering if anyone is running these in the rear...I would run the ef rear ones but a friend of mine has an extra set for his DA and can hook it up....I have DA tockico blues with my GC's right now and because the DA rear spring perch is 1 in higher on the shock body I had to lower my GC's 1 in to compensate and now the shocks(which r garbage anyways)bottom out easily.My question is the fact that the spring perch is adjustable on koni yellows going to make up for the fact the it regualry sits 1in higher on a DA shock?Also is the fact that the shock is valved for a car some 500lbs heavier than mine going to affect the ride/handling? Thanks

DA shocks look too tall to me.



no wonder you bottom out your rear...

EG/DC are the way to go.
