The upper in the kit is only 1” wide. These AVOs can fit 5/8 bearings in the ends
I used the stud kit only for mockup Check DVs thread “Mounting QA1s and Pro Shocks to CR frame and axel” 06 08 2008 DV is the multiuniversal god of Classic 427s Party On Wyatt |

The ones in the kit have the tabs to attach a sway bar. The one side of yours is not visible. Do the ones you have have the tabs to attach a swaybar? The kit also has the option to add QA1 coilovers. I wonder if they send the lowers you have. |
The ones I have do not have mounts for the sway bar, but I do have the Brackets that were on it.. took the front bar off and it handles so much better.

Sycraft, I sent you an email regarding your LCAs. If Royalrumble is not interested in purchasing your LCAs, I would be.

Let me think on it, find out if it would be worth piecing my front end rather than buying a pre-assembled kit. I'll do it asap. I really appreciate you help and comments. |
Received my UPR coilover bracket kit today.. gathering parts for winter downtime. Upper mounts will be an issue, may fab new upper mounts

May try these for the upper mount https://www.speedwaymotors.com/Coilo...Query=91636010 I also have a friend that is a metal fab, took the diagram posted elsewhere and mat try and build upper brackets as well, just can't weld them on as body is on. I want to be sure it has enough strength to support the vehicle |
I should receive tomorrow 4 of what Speedway describes as “the ONLY engineered” mounts that you link to
That is the part number for single Part #9109850 polished $34.99 a pair, also have plain finish This is improved version of what Don Scott owner of CRII did See the CheeseSnake post 05-02-06 for Dons advise on springs, sway bars and mounts I will post photos of the shock mount and the KYB Quad shock with a WyattCo bolt on bracket installed Check it out, its 4 or 5 Classic chassis start/upgrades at the same time! Party On Wyatt |
I an using the stud on the top and the bracket on the lower.. this way the shock can articulate at least in the lower when the suspension compresses and rebounds. If both shock eyes were on the stud, I think there would be undue stress on the mounting points. Not sure if the axle travels straight up and down or a slight ark
|
Articulation was my concern too
I want it pretty so Ordered 1/2 wide 1 od x 5/8 id press in spherical bearings for the shock eyes QA1s from Grainger Its like Christmas here, got Cobra 427 valve covers coming for the bus too Party On Wyatt |
Interested in your top mount setup.. have you measured for your shocks yet.. need to measure resting ride height, extended and compressed....
|
Ride height with stock holes 13 1/2 with 26 tall 255/50/16 tires looks good
I have discontinued AVOs with 11 1/2 to 15 1/2 range Pro Shock ASB/SR5-A-B58-P soft med firm 3 way adjustable Has a 5 stroke, aluminum body, 5/8 bearings, polished, 13 1/2 ride height With a 3 1/4 x 3 1/2 x 3/8 plate added to top mount face you can move mount hole easy I moved the hole in 5/8 for Quad shock clearance Shock mounts expected today, lets see what happens... Like at work, unbox the parts, say whaaaat? Party On Wyatt |
does anyone have the measurement for the rear lower control arms, center to center hole? Looking at having heim joint lowers made to get rid of the spring perch when I do a coilover conversion. found some jeep ones These control arms are fabricated from 1.750" OD x 0.120" W DOM tubing in the USA. Both ends have massive 1.25" chrome moly heim joints with misalignment spacers to give a total adjustment range of 15.4"-17.5". or these pending I can get the adjustable measurement range..
