ok pulled the rear suspension tonite- pulled the t-bars. Just pulled the bars and reinstalled everything as stock- is that all? While it was out i took time to put my schnell short shift kit in which was a pain because the shaft that goes into the shifter rod was too long and i had to trim it down to fit. Put the rear suspension all back in and new springs on my coilovers. New rear brakepads installed and bled the brakes and dropped it back down on all four. Problem is that the alignment is so out now that the rear tires are cambered in and the ps is rubbing the wheel well. The brakes are also real mushy from having them apart and doing a quick bleed in which i ran out of super blue and threw in some stp brake fluid- guess that didnt do the trick. Not a biggie i'll be pulling the front soon and it'll be getting a full alignment and brakes bled anyways just wish i coulda driven it for a day before i pull the motor.

I hear ya kevin on those rear mounts. I'm planning on getting those asap before i really drive it. Where is the best place to find those- Paragon? Any specific brand that works best? Also ordered my fuel gauge from pauertuning.com tonite- one step closer to being like sam.

Get the Racers Edge units they are the best. I've been on them for 3 years not with no issues. Paragon, RS Barn, just about anywhere has them.

Check out the low rider...

was that YOU!! i remember that post back from when i was a lowly newby. Damn! Who carries the RE units?

SamGrant951

The only problem with that is if the rear shocks you have accept the 1/2" RE bolt or not... I know my rear Bilstein units dont (stock rubber mount) and Im going to have Bilstein modify them when they revalve them for the 1/2" bearing mount.

RE bolt from Paragon: http://www.paragon-products.com/product_p/re_mc7000.htm

The QA1's that dan has can easily be converted to accept the half inch bolt. Jegs here in Columbus has all the parts to convert them to sperical bearings. Pretty easy to do to according to Shane that did his.

xsboost90

what was it just a new rubber and metal bushing?

kasturbo

No, it got rid of the rubber all together and turns it into a sperical bearing. PM Shane. I'm sure he can give you all the details.

xsboost90

pretty sure this is what your talking about- just need to verify w/ Shane.

ok ya bunch of biatches i ordered some spherical mounts and a QA1 bushing conversion today..geez.

she's up in the air again. all four off and i adjusted some camber out of the rear so when it rolls again it wont be rubbin the wheelwell on the inside. Just waiting for my box from paragon to bleed my brakes and install the spherical mounts- drive it around the block then rip the motor out.

Want a free trip to rennbay headquaters to help me put my pile back together in March? LOL You work about 1000x faster than I do I think.

What are the specs on the QA-1 shocks that you have? does Jegs carry them? I remember looking through their catalog but I couldn't figure out what I needed.

xsboost90

they do carry them but im not sure the specs- they are 12way adjustable and they were originally sold through KLA w/ adapters to fit the 44 directly. The top needs a 1/4" or so spacer on either side to fit the shock mount right and the bottom needs to be spaced out about 1/2" away from the trailing arms. Mine are flipped so the adjustment is on the bottom and has custom spacers to allow us to flip them. Next time i'll be getting koni's or something.
