shinybluesteel Forums Junkie I supported Toymods Location: melbourne Registered: June 2002	Re: sensible spring rates for "boy racer" street driven AE86 Mon, 10 May 2004 02:03 argh, you bastards, dont turn this into a general AE86 suspension thread!!! 8/6 seems the general consensus, i need to take a ride in one of these sprung to buggery cars. i will be barging in on some of you guys at the end of the year, planning a trip to queensland and that seeme to be where most of the AE86 nutjobs live. MRSHIN, what spring rates are you using? and do the traction brackets only re-locate one pair of mounts? and for everyone, what are the disadvantages of using coilovers?? leaning fairly heavily toward them more and more now. going to look into making myself an adjustable panhard rod too, need to price some spherical bearings. edit: takai, if you look at the back end of a sprinter, you will see that the springs are mounted seperately to the shocks, the shocks are fixed to the "axle housing" just by bolts, single shear bolts. thie needs reinforcing if you want to run rear coilovers. personally, i would never run coilovers in place of seperately mounted shocks (ie i would only use "coilovers" to replace standard coil over struts), but that is just me. i also wouldnt use a rear strut brace in a sprinter, i would however make a brace that bolts between the rear seat catch clips!! second edit: it seems that you can't really have short stroke suspension without having coilovers too, due to the standard spring perch being s close to the top of the strut, so it looks like my mind has been made up for me. coilovers here i come [Updated on: Mon, 10 May 2004 02:46] [Report message to a moderator]
