Rear Coilover Goodies/Aluminum Rearend
Looking for Clevis mount and the "Spohn" weld in plate for the rear coilover set up.
I'm attaching a pic of the plates I'm looking for.
If anybody has the whole set up, I'm down for review.
Also interested in a aluminum rear end for weight savings.
Pic attached.

Re: Rear Coilover Goodies/Aluminum Rearend
that aluminum rear is a custom one off deal that BIGMODS (stan) did a few years back.

Thanks for the reply, called Spohn today, they only enough order the plates for the kits, they said they can't sell them separate, they checked and called me back.
Looking to save weight on the rear end.

Re: Rear Coilover Goodies/Aluminum Rearend
Hi, Coilovers are done , ordered C6 Z06 front bakae kit, now I am really looking a rear end.
Moser does 9 inch floater w/ aluminum center section.
Strange does a drop out 12 bolt, but they say they cant mout the torque arm to it.
I don't understand that because moser uses a ford 9 inch housing and so does Strange?
I am still curious on the picture of the aluminum unit even though it is a one up.
How does one get closer to this one up situation...LOL
Txs for any help.

Re: Rear Coilover Goodies/Aluminum Rearend
I was using a 12" spring that was a progressive from 130 to 250LBS.
It was close, with a full tank of gas and noting in the back it was too soft.
I just went to 275LB springs, which may be too stiff.
I thinking I should have went to a straight poundage spring @ 250LB.
News at eleven, the beast is almost running.
