Intuitive shock settings

Thanks Mike.
I've experienced all those scenerios too........
Before I lower the ride height back down I'll try just stiffening the rear shocks to find the fine line between too much separation and rattling the tires.
Whats complicated this is that I changed to new springs last year ( more rate ) as the old orginals had been in there since early nineties and were just junkyard springs when I installed back then. The new springs just naturally changed the ride height so to get the car back down I had to use the lowest holes on the floaters which in turn lowered the I.C. and so on............so I raised the car UP 1 hole and now the front of the bar is higher ( higher I.C. ). Just to see how the car would react. The problem arises where / when I want to limit the seperation with stiffer extension , potentially inducing the "basketballing " effect.
Seperation is typically not an issue with the low I.C. and it seems to me the best tuning "window" will be with the lower ride height / lower I.C.
