It's a generally held opinion in the modifying community that shocks that were originally matched to stock springs have a shorter-than-expected life when later used with lowering springs. I believe it's because they are under a great and constant pressure due to the decreased stroke, but I can't say I'm an expert on it.

I actually have a scan gauge. Are the grill dams o my for when your cruising and plan for 0 traffic?

That's where the balance lies. My grill block is correx and cable ties. Should my engine temps start to peak in unforeseen conditions I can just snip them off and easily replace them.
