My understanding is different. As I stated in an earlier post, many after
market Miata R Koni shocks were built approximately 2mm too low. To
compensate for this, owners of said shocks, including McCormick, put the
perch on the lowest setting, but added a shim to bring the perch up to the
original stock setting. This is easier than creating a 2mm shim.
Lucy's were legal from the factory. But not all are! Check and make sure
you're safe!
