Fitted T2D shortend shocks ,now have trouble removing wheel

[fozworth]

I have fitted a pair of t2d shortend shocks to my rear end which has adjustable spring plate sand is turned 1-2 splines .I now have to unbolt the lower shock bolt to let the sprig plate drop down enough to remove the wheel which with my longer std shocks I didn't have to .
Is this the norm with this type of set up?

Hi thanks for the reply ,the thing is I've got air shocks fitted at the front but and the rear end I plan to do the same as well as using s tank do I guess these will have to do for the short term . As not worth spending heaps on other shocks
