OME 881's with a Rancho strut. Possible?

[juiceboxer]

I have read in more places than one that the OME coils are to be used with OME shocks only. Yet I have seen many people run Bilstiens, Tokico's, and factory struts...

Is it possible for me to use my Rancho Rs9000's that I already have with an OME coil spring? If not, does it have something to do with how the coil fits in the strut?

Thank You

its cause ome shocks are longer to work with taller coils

OK, so they will work with my ranchos though I may loose some of the "added" travel of the new spring. You wouldn't happen to know the specs of the factory shock at compression and droop would you? Then I could calculate how much travel I could be losing.

Again Thank you
