Stagger Shocks

[rick 36dodge]

I am  getting ready to put new rear leaf springs under my 36 Dodge. I have got some 68 Camaro lower spring plates. They have stagger shock mounts. Have any of you put stagger shocks on a Street Rod ? Thanks in advance for your advice !!!

Yes I have, if you have room they work great. Keep the angles as close as possible to make the shock action the same on both sides.

FWIW, and as I understand it, staggered shocks help reduce wheel hop by resisting axle wrap-up.

I have also done it but only when space was a problem.  The best ones for axle wrap would be the extra shocks/dampners they put on those 80s mustangs.  Just keep in mind how your exhaust and e-brakes are going to run.
