    Default Not bad for a sedan....

    Hey guys, installed the BC Racing Coilovers on my car yesterday so here they are:


    Its low enough for now but I have 1.5-2 inches to play with. I've got a ton of axle bind so it looks like its time to PM Mr. Powell. lol

    Mr. Powell may tell you to sell the coilovers or raise it.

    doesn't look bad tho. what are your future plans for it?

    Blazin knows all about being slammed, he is a good resource as well. IIRC LNF axle/ hub swap helps.

    Plans are just to get some decent wheels and throw my Supercharger kit on and daily it. I have a 91 300ZX to make my more performance oriented car. lol I've heard of the LNF axle/ hub swap but theres gotta be a better way.

    how does the LNF axle and knuckle help? the axle centerline to strut is 100% the same as he has. There is a solution, PM sent, but I need to know what it is for motor thanks

    I stand corrected. I thought there was something slightly different about it that had some benefit. Thinking of something else maybe, or just dumb in general? Probably a little of column A, a little of column B.

    the lnf has a shorter steering arm, and a larger inside diameter for a larger outside diameter wheel bearing. Other than that the ball joint and strut mount positions are the same in space as any cobalt.

    exactly, lnf axles and hubs will not help. raising the motor will and so will a custom axle(wink wink, in the works)

    yes I have a solution, I will be looking at an auto on Saturday and plot it out and let you know. It will be fun to do, and you may end up with firmer power unit control..
