Without the rotating mass of the rotoflex joints, you should be able to use the
same shocks as the non-rotoflex cars use, and the same attaching points.

Greetings FOT,
<div>
On my GT6 MK3 racecar, (rotoflex
halfshafts have been replaced with Datsun u-jointed shafts), I'd like
to relocate the rear upper shock mount from the standard wheel arch sheet metal
mount inboard to the frame, using the mounting points already there for the
spitfire/gt6 swing axle shock mounts. Since the big rotoflex joints
aren't there, it looks like I'll have plenty of clearance.

<div>
This will shorten the distance between mounting points significantly, I
expect the Rotoflex length shocks will bottom out. Does anyone know if
the "off the shelf" swing axle length shocks (Koni or Spax) will work for this?
