Rear suspension Mod

Just to get you started, I know you need another set of front struts to make it work.

 

I thought the rear strut assembly was slightly longer (shorter?) than the front...

 

I might be wrong. Willie told me what parts I needed to snag off the last parts car to do the koni's in the rear of my car. Said I needed the front strut assemblies and you modified those to use the cartridge shocks. Maybe I am miss understanding him.

 

yeh the front struts on our cars are already cartridges. You will need to modify another set of front ones to make them fit the rear

 

thats what i thought, just gut them and make the collar work is what the how to said.

 

I never actually read the how-to.....you guys may now continue

 

As far as I know, you take the stock front ones since they will accept a cartridge(the stock rears are a single 1 piece unit) and remove the lower mounting bracket. Then you re-attach the mounting bracket in the proper location compared to the stock rear unit. That allows the rear struts to take a cartridge.

 

not what the how to says :|, rears are quite a bitdifferent from what i saw today ;p

 

achmed that seems like it would be easier than cutting the rear ones...as long as it work's good...

 

Worked good on Snyders car, and Willie's car. I could be wrong. Kinda suprised Willie hasn't chimed in here yet.

 

Willie and I both completed this mod. I also powdercoated everything also!





Thanks,

Chris

I don't know enough to talk anymore. I never saw you do it, so I have no more info. Just assumptions and guesses.
