The suspension on my car is tired, so I'm considering a complete overhaul. It's an AX street car, so I've started looking at switching to coilovers all-round.
I'd like to hear from anyone who has them about your set-ups/experiences: What springs you're running, what shocks you're running, did you have to reinforce your shock towers, are you running just springs up front or a spring/torsion bar mix, do you have raised spindles, and anything else you think might be useful. I've been looking at the elephant racing site, they have great stuff and there's obviously a lot of R&D behind their packages, but I'm wondering if I can put something together myself for less $$$$. Thanks John |

With my final AX set up, I ran Bilsteins up front without dust covers as they would have interfered the tires......had about 1/4 inch clearance. Coil overs would not fit.
An extreme situation....but the whole freaking car was and there was a reason for about everything. |
