coil over suspension

I am trying to deciede whether it is worth it to upgrade my rear suspension to coil overs. For those who have done it, what's involved in terms of fabrication or is it a simple bolt in. Can someone shed some light on this for me?

have fronts...no rear....fronts was a nice weight reduction and the adjustment on height was good.

Coil Over 87 Iroc

Hi,

I also have a set on the front of mine. 87Iroc-Art Morrison

Great for ride hieght settings but don't like noise or chatter,
Maybe some sort of rubber dampening on upper and lower
seats in order.
Also don't like swaybar mounting setup. Flimsy, but really
setup designed for Drag-Wieght reduction and not roadracing.
They sure look good when front wheels are off at car shows.

Later
