I need to upgrade my suspension on my '73 and I don't know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif). Hell, I don't even know Jack! My 76 has Bilstein's and they seem to do the job but how the Hell would I know? This '73 has KYB's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) so any Boge, Koni or Bilstein is going to outperform and outlast the KYB's. BTW, what is "coil over"?
The '73 has the factory rear sway bar and all of the front end has new ball joint's/bushings/tie rods, yadi, yadi. However, she is gaining some weight with the radiator, a/c and Suby Six mod's. This car will not be a track car but might seen shitting an occasional Honda. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) I'm particularly interested in those who might have dealt with this exact scenario but all input is greatly appreciated. Thirdly, whom would you recommend? I prefer dealing with member vendors whenever possible. EDIT: I forgot to ask about springs. Which ones? |
