rear coil overs
 
4 Attachment(s)
hey guys.

i was wondering who is running rear coil overs with a lowered stance? i am having a heck of a time with my set up.. i am runing the longer panard bar on the bottom and it will be in the way of the coil overs.. so i made a bracket so its out of the way but now i can not fit as large a tire in back so its a compromise.. if any of you have pictures please post. need ideas

also will the longer panard bar give me that much better drivability? i am building to drag race so i need it to be abley to handle the high speed.

You need to cut that thing off and use something like this. I have coilovers and used race car brackets for the mounts to the axle and the panhard bar.

you could always relocate the panhard bar in front of the axel or dump the panhard and go with a watts linkage
