stock springs in with 2ndgen

Ok guys,
Since I thought not everyone would have coil-overs, I thought I put in the stock setup to check and see how it works.

This uses stock 1st gen springs and top mount with 2nd gen shocks.









It seems to work fine.

CHeers,
Omid

It's not that easy. If you have followed what I am doing, this is a whole front subframe swap. It's not something you can do over a weekend in your driveway.

I'm very interested in staying posted on this, Amoebid. I've bought the front subframe off Deggail's parts car and will be putting it into an FB chassis (no, not into Pamela - she's staying as is!)

perhaps you and I should swap notes as we go. You can always reach me at info@rotorhead.ca
