I got my long tower and b5m rear shock kits today. I sprayed one side of the shock tower with the clear flex seal as suggested earlier in this thread. It looks like crap and dries foggy not clear. Don't think I like that much.

As someone said earlier; I can just move shocks from my b5m over. So, I just built the shock kit with the eyelets that came with them which look the same as the short eyelets from the b6d kit. As such, I had +5 spring perches on the b5m so I put + 5 on these for the b6d as well.

I put the same pistons and springs that I had on the stock b6d shocks and used the same mounting locations. My goal was to not to negatively change the setup and handling from what I already had...as I liked it the way it was for now. Just looking to improve the cushioning from the added oil volume and if I get a little extra rear grip...well, I won't complain about that either.

Does it sound like I am going about this right? Or, am I missing/forgetting something?
