Evidently I'm not capable of figuring out how to get my trf damper mounted properly. My issue is I have the droop set where I would like it, but there's too much tension on the spring and I end up with a 5mm ride height where as the rear pod is at 4 and the front is at 4. I was using the long ball end with around 4mm of limiting mounted on the far holes of the middle shock mount. What am I doing wrong?

You adjust the droop by moving the shock to achieve the droop you desire in the rear. From your picture it looks like you have the shock mounted in the stock position and not in the rearward position shown in the manual (page 13), this can account for your droop problem. Measure the stock shock and the TRF and if the TRF is shorter then use the manual's alternate position.

I'm still fairly new to this car and using the stock oil dampeners. What is the benefit of upgrading to the TRF ones?
