REAR COIL OVERS
Has anyone installed a rear coil over kit with the stock sumped gas tank? If so do you have any pics? I have a 9" under my car and want to put coilovers on it but thinking I may have to get rid of the tank but dont want to.

Re: REAR COIL OVERS
why would the sump be in the way? coilovers are no where near the sump. I run the wolfe racecraft rear springs and they use the 2.5" diameter springs with new spring pockets up top.

So you run coilovers in the stock location? I was talking about the kits you can order that uss the qa1 shocks. It appears that I wont have any room with the tank in the way for the top mount bar that goes from frame to frame

if you want coilovers, put them in the stock location.

Re: REAR COIL OVERS
I went to wolfe racecraft site. may I ask what all did you use as far as shocks? And how did you mount your shocks in the spring perches? Just a little confused on how they bolt in. And thanks,was unaware of the availabilty to use coil overs in the stock perches. much appreciated
