Default C-4 Coilovers

Coilovers can be used on C-4 suspensions that were setup originally for the transverse leaf spring. Please see the picture. These are a bolt in with only one change needed in the rear. The diameter of the half shaft must be reduced to 3 1/2 inches or less to avoid coilover spring interference. The numbers are Bilstein Shock numbers B36-0228 and B46--0238.
Coilover kits #193117 and #193102 are needed. Call Bilstein,tell them what you want, ask them to GROOVE the shocks for the coilover kits, I think, they charge about $40 for that. They may ask you to get them through one of their dealers, I used someone in Mass., last time I ordered some. Cost is about $600 without the springs. This change over will give you the freedom to change ride height and spring rates easily.
