Just finished buildin' our new street dancer for this season and got a question to anyone who has built a Toyota dancer or hopper. In the front I have a coil over set up with showballs. Reinforced lowers with the uppers extended 1.5 inches and reinforced and notched out like no other. Also have towers built to accomdate a full stack. The towers have the same mounting points for the uppers so the mounting points are a stock position. Anyhow, had a full stack of blue showtime 2 tons in the front and they seemed to compress a lot more than i thought they would. Front hop was doing fairly decent runnin at 60 volts. Yet she wasnt swangin and bangin.
Question 1: What do you think would be the best full stack or damn near a full stack to put in the front of a 1990 toyota set up like this and 2 does anyone know the exact tonnage of a blue vs. red 2 ton coil is from showtime.
All help is greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Talked to Rob yesterday but dont have Todd's number anymore. I think he was runnin 2 ton coil under, not sure on number of turns though. If anyone has Todd's new number post it.

theres so many variables in truck dancing that you should test out everything on your own truck.

i have 2 1/2 tons in the front of my radical and it's not enough... and all I have is batteries, but you have to remember that the cab weighs more than the bed...I would try at least a 3 ton in the front of your truck...

Gonna try out some older 2 3/4 tons I got layin out in the shop from forever and a day ago. Who knows, I will post the results after Friday when we test em out. Thanx Mark for the info.

I have his # some where around here. I will look for it and pm you with it. Last time I talked to Rob he said he switched out the 2 3/4 tons to the 2 ton purples because he said his truck wouldn't compress the reds. Anyways, I will try to find Wilts #. By the way, are you or Indiana Ryder related to a guy named Jason?

I'm originally from Indy but, I had to move out in between Martinsville and Monrovia. I am about 15 minutes from Rob's house. I didn't get the chance to look for it today but, I will try to find it later.

Got the front end figured out. 1 full stack of 2 ton showtime springs with exactly 1 coil cut off. She's a swangin'.
