Ebay Coilover Spring Swap

[mark_airey]

Lol that's what I don't want to do, going on bumpstops is bad. That's why I was wondering if I upgrade the main spring could I do away with the helper and still stop myself from bumping so much as well as going to about 80/90mm

did you actually read anything I put in my first post in this thread??

Second paragraph................

and also if you remove the helper spring the car will sit higher in theory (as normally you wind the platform to the helper then once you lower the car to the ground it instantly drops 2-3" on the helper plus whatever the main spring compresses, without it you will wind the platform up to the main spring so there is no slack and the car will only drop the amount that the main spring compresses loosing you 2"-3" of drop) unless you sit the platform below the main spring with a gap when the car is raised and then the main spring will unseat every time the car goes over a bump and extends.

Stupid question Matt but yours are sat fully in the hubs at the bottom right?

Iv never looked into how feasable it is on a 306 before, but might be worth looking at cut down/shorter top mounts and maybe a turret raise aswel, could gain you around an extra 40mm drop or same height and extra 40mm shock travel.

the turrets are pretty close to the bottom of the bonnet but shortening the top mounts would work in theory as would shortened shocks if you can find someone to do it.................
