Default LA Exotics Cobra

I just purchased a used LA exotics cobra. It has a pretty rough ride and has coil over shocks. Any thoughts on something to make the ride a little nicer?

Also the car has lower trailing arms in the rear, with a spot for small coil springs between the arms and the frame but no springs. Are there springs that I can purchase to install? Thanks for any advice...

Not sure about LA Exotics as a brand (only seen 1 and not from underneath, so my advise is generic) how old is the car and its rubber bushings >? are the coilovers on it adjustable >?

I am sure someone can provide brand specific advice , but you may want to make friends with a local chassis and alighment shop to help you administrate an update to your car.

it may be simple stuff\or just not together correctly\or the former owner had it setup quite stiff.

I think I still have a set of springs that I can sell you cheap if that is the route you want to go. They came off my B&B and they make for a comfortable ride.

Elvet,

In case you are not aware, the B&B owner is the former manufacturer of the LA Exotics. Clois is very knowledgable about the B&B/LA Exotics roadster.

You can also talk to Bryan Anderson at B&B.
