My name is Paul and I have an 88 camaro that I am building for street/strip. I'm looking for versatility in the fact that I want to run the front coilover conversion as well as coilovers in the rear so I can have the car lowered for when I drive it on the street, but then put it back up to ride height when I decide to take it to the track. I am pretty sure that Art Morrison(??) makes the front coilover conversion but does anyone make one for the rear. I think I saw somethng in a Hot Rod magazine or something in the new products section that one was available by Accu Fab or something like that, but I can't seem to find that issue. Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks again, Paul Moore

That was AutoFab Racing, based in Elkridge, MD. There is alot of talk going on here and over at www.thirdgen.org about them. I don't believe anyone from the boards have tried them, but around here (they are local), they have an excellent reputation.

It was tested in a recent Car Craft issue on a LS1 car.

Thanks for the info. I know for a fact that I saw the damn article but for the life of me I couldn't find it. I can't believe that anyone from the board hasn't tried them yet, seems kida weird if you ask me. Well, good thing that the rear suspensions on the F body haven't changed for the last 20 years!!

i'm running a custom combination of art morrison, eibach, pa racing and one off pieces for my front coilover setup. as far as the rear i won't do it as the adjustment works but it's sort of a pita for a street/strip car. since i already had an eibach pro-kit on the car i just left the rear springs in and it works out well with the match eibach ers coilover front springs.

the coilovers are nice and light and they do work as intended but i was hoping for more adjustment...i plan to remove mine very soon.

I would get the weight jacks for your stock spring locations from www.ground-control.com. The rear shock mounts are not designed to handle the weight of the entire car. The springs sit under several layers of steel that are welded together for strength. The shock mount is basically made of stamped steel (and not real heavy either). I'm not saying it won't work, but I think there is a good possibility of failure 50,000 miles from now (maybe 10,000, who knows) due to flexing of the mounting area. I try to avoid the "they sell it, so it must work ok" mentality. Just because someone makes it, and somebody else likes it doesn't make it the "correct" answer. And, the GC weight jacks are just as easy to adjust.

Also, when you change ride height, your alignment will change. Moving it back and fourth has the potential for the alignment to get out of spec and may affect handling and tire life. Just thought I'd mention it.

My thoughts.

Have fun!

Ive the G.C set-up in back. w/170in lbs spring.works great easy to adjust.Dont have the fronts(yet).

just put air ride on it......

Ground Control sells some of the best stuff on the market.... for any car.

You can trust what they sell. BTW: the Nascar guys use the same weight jacker system on every car, every race.
