OGRE Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 I ran accross a lakewood 50/50 rear coilover setup for my 98 GT My axle wil be done this week so i need to get this strieghtend out, i went to install the rear coilovers and the springs are 12/110, i'm thinking could this be correct? the car has tubular front susp. with 12/250 coilovers on the front. it has no front swaybar at the moment. I want to cruise the car in nice weather and be able to drive it long distances comfortably, with probibly 3-5 trips to the track on test & tune nights. I have an extra set of springs that are 14/130. If possible i'd like to work with what i have, and use the coilovers on the rearend, mainly because I want to set the ride hieght to the way I like it, not slammed but kinda lowered so that the wheel gaps are about 1-1.5" all the way around. so at my disposal are a set of stock rear springs, and coilovers front & back with 14"-130#, 12"-110#, 12"-250# I was thinking the 14"-130 up front and the 12"-250 out back would be good for the drag strip, am I off on that assumption? thanks alot guys.

NTHER91 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 I'm not a suspension guru but the 250# out back would not allow the car to squat and weight transfer I would think.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
