Reply to "Rear shocks"

Popee, I don't recall who built your car or what kind of rear brakes you have, but I had a problem on my brand new 2013 VS, with the rear EMPI disc brakes that get installed on a lot of our cars.

The e-brake return spring was interfering with the frame of the car and a fiberglass panel attached to it. After only about an inch of suspension travel, that spring was contacting the frame and stopping any further travel. You could see the wear marks on the frame where the spring was hitting:

Our fix was to notch the frame and panel, and to weld in a countersunk reinforcement.

This may not be what's causing your problem, but it's something to check.
