I purchased a K-member, tubular A-arms and a coil over conversion kit for my 83 camaro race car back a few years ago. I would like to change the springs on the front to a lighter spring rate. The car weights about 2800 and is very stiff in the front with the adjusters all the way down. Who makes a lighter spring that will work with this conversion kit. I have posted a pic of the car at ride height. I would like to be able lower the front end down a little one day.

 

You might try to call them. 813-986-9302

 

they whould be just 2.5" ID coilover springs. Measure the free length of what you have and order a shorter spring, or a lighter rate spring to lower the car

 

Give me a call here at the office i can help you out with your spring issue.

 

Thank you for your replys i called and talked to them.

 

What spring did you decide to go with? (ht/wt)
I am interested in your before and after results (adjustability/ etc) as I am having the same type situation, but haven't been able to touch it do to holidays, work, family, weather.

Thanks
Matt

 

The reason I ask about the BMR coil over conversion is because they use a Hyper coil 200pound 3” ID spring that is 10” long. With my car they were at the bottom of the adjuster. The only spring I found that mite work is a Eibach 150 pound spring of the same size. I ordered a pair from summit last week and I’m waiting on them now.

 

Let me know how they work.

 

Ok I got the car back off of the jack stands today and it looks like the 150 pound springs are going to work. I ran the adjuster up about 1.5 inches to get my ride height back to where it was. Here is a picture of the strut with the springs sitting on the ground

 

Let me know how it works for you.

 

Well i made it out to the track last weekend and the car done great
It ran a best of 7.200@95.52 on the 1/8. 60 ft was 1.585. The front end is working better than last year.
