Hello,
The rear of my car is sitting about 22" from the fender arch to the floor. I assume the springs are worn out. The struts are definitely worn, I get sea sick driving over bumps. So it's time for a suspension overhaul. This car will never see the track, and probably won't even do an autocross. I wouldn't mind upgrading a little, but nothing drastic. Primarily a daily driver. So, what does the board recommend? Please help me compose a shopping list. Also, where do you guys buy your parts from? Thanks, BK I just searched around. It looks like the prefered struts are Koni/Bilstein/Boge, in that order. Then 140# springs, turbo tie rods and call it a day. I have a set of f/r sways from a 70 911. Will they bolt right on? Thanks again. |
