I have rear nonadjustable rear dampers from Lotus Bits but the curretly they don't do front dampers.
SJ do an adjustable damper but given they sit inside the spring can the adjuster knob be accessed for adjustment?
I have bought new front springs with the top space as its an SA.

Anybody fitted these SJ dampers or other dampers for the front?

I fitted avo adjustables from LB with a 2.5in id spring. As they need a new carrier the adjuster knob was accessible. I then swapped the 2.5 to a 3in id spring and now will look to go back to std on the front. Also an SA

So did you put them at mid adjustment and forget about it?

If I recall the usual setting was 3 or 4 clicks down. You just forget about them anyways

I had ProTech make 600 series dampers with adjustable spring seats to take 2.25" 'race' springs, but I'm still feeding the spring loads into the chassis.

I fitted Protech adjustables supplied by SJ to the front of my SE two years ago and have been very satisfied with them.
