Silver, would be too much red I think.

 

[Ginger]

Probably what I'll do with brushed bodies...

 

[Ginger]

good plan IMO

 

[billnewl]

Am in need of color-matched fender flares...

Coil-over conversion brackets are here. I plan on getting 2.5" ID 16" long Eibach springs (powder-coat them candy red), 2.0 5/8s shaft 10" travel Fox resi coil-over shocks for the front and 2.0 5/8s shaft 10" travel Fox resi shocks for the rear. I will more than likely just wait til next season to order these or at least wait to put them on.

 

[Ginger]

be carefull with powdering them, too much temp can change the spring rate

 

[billnewl]

Really? It's only like 400 degrees for 10 minutes per coat. It's ok for leaf springs and torsion bars...

 

[Cheeny23]

300 is enough to mess with heat treating properties of knives so i'm sure that could affect the springs the same way

 

[Ginger]

heat lamp would be the best if you have to coat them.


im sure you can get them powdered. im just saying be carefull about it, make sure its someone that knows what they are doing with springs.

any updates? ray:

 

[billnewl]

Nop, nothing til next spring at least. Probably just do a fox shocks, 3" spacers, a system and be done with it...
