what are you trying to do , the bolts can be completely removed if you are disassembling the front suspension if you are lowering the front end you can go almost all the way out

would it ride on bumpstops if I adjust bolts almost all the way out? I adjusted them almost all the way out and now front end bounces over bumps like lowrider. What shocks would you also recommend?

yes it will ride on the bump stops if lowered enough
Shocks depend on what you are doing with the car , Konis are probably the best shocks , QA1 has some good shocks too , KYB are a stiffer ride shock
 Monroe still makes a Gasmatic or sensitrac shock too

would it hurt shocks if car rides on bump stops? What part # of Koni's would be good for 68 Charger?

running on the bump stops won`t hurt the shocks , not a good ride that way though
