hey i am going to try to install a coil over set up in the front of my cutty has anybody tryed this yet ? give me all your guys imput

never done it but sounds like it would allow the cylinder to move up and down and could cause damage to brake master cyl, depending on if you hop...

coil over up front would be ideal for my grand national because my up and downpipe is right over where the cylinder should i go :biggrin:

dont know why you would want to its gonna be a lil bit squeeky but use a powerball and weld a piece of 1/4" metal over the shock hole in the lca and weld the powerball to that.

some cars/trucks are easier/better to do a coil over in the front.main thing, make sure your upper spring mounts are nice and solid, and you have plenty of room in the engine compartment.

hyme joint or box/bolt the cylinder to the bottom a arm.

YOU SHOULD ALSO THINK OF A COIL OVER CUP UP TOP TO KEEP THE SPRING CENTERD. I HAVE SEEN THAT ON PICK UPS BUT NOT OFFTEN IF AT ALL ON G BODIES,BUT THAT DON'T MEAN IT WRONG. :biggrin:

YOU SHOULD ALSO CUT OFF THE BOTTOM OF THE SPRNG POCKETTO GIVE YA A LITTLE ROOM WHEN YOU GO OVER IT WITH THE REINFORCEMENT WELD THE POWER BALL TO THE 1/4 INCH PLATE RE IN.
