View Full Version : What coil overs to run??

So I'm changing the front suspension setup on my foxbody roller project. I have Eibach drag springs on it and I would like to go w/ a coil over setup.

I've found the Strange coil over kit for about 70 bucks but I have no idea what spring to run or how tall of a spring to run. It looks like they have several diameters, heights, and weight ratings...

Can anyone shed some light on this for me? I was hoping to go with something inexpensive like the steeda springs which are only about 75 bucks.

Car will be a small block and a stick shift that I would like to run UMTR with or atleast play with at the track mostly and also drive on the street. I already have eibach rear springs, upr pro series upper and lower adjustable rear arms, spherical axle bushings, anti roll bar and a tubular k member up front w/ tubular control arms and caster camber plates.

Thanks!

I run qa1, 150#, 14" Jesse and they work pretty good on the street.

Any advantage or disadvantage over the high travel springs? the regulars seem to be unavailable at the moment.

It looks like I could use the S6001 kit for each strut, then get 2 of the QA1 14HT150 springs, and then that would finish the fronts. Then I just need some strange shocks for the rear...

Never used them before but been 1.35 on the regular ones.
