Thread: Coil overs

Tweet

A bit of an update. I just spent a couple hours looking for 11" springs. TCI has them - that's it. No one else uses this length. 8, 10, 12 and 14 inches are the standard.

So - another Speedway order for some 10" springs along with some Genesis 1" spacers from Hoerr Racing. As long as I have had these parts/TCI chassis, not a bit of recourse for the extra bucks I've spent. Too bad I wasn't as "smart" as I am today. If I had a lathe, the spacers would already have been made.

Luckily Speedway has some 190 pound at garage sale cost, which with the correction factor are only 6-8 pounds over what is needed.

Dam' this is fun!!!!!

OOPS - they only had one 190# so I ordered some Carrara/QA1. They showed up this afternoon and are on their way back to Speedway tomorrow - one has a 1/2 list and both have lousy chrome plating with black/bare spots. Ordered a pair of AFCO's 200# which will work, tho a wee bit heavier then I need and they might need a shim with my spacers (which are almost too pretty to hide)
