mine is done, rear coilovers set with spring adjusters almost fully extended, will see how she rides and handles. Crappy weather in Michigan right now, so may be a while before road test.

-24°F here right now, going to -26°F tonight with an Accufeel of -31°F. Not Cobra weather. I've been told the Sorels aren't compatible with a Cobra footbox anyway.

hoping the springs will settle a little, I am sitting about an inch higher than I want in the rear. If not, then its a quick change to 225 LB springs. I removed 225 lb springs from the original location before the changeover. at the beginning of the project......

I think I have you beat here. We hit -40C, thats -40F

Anything you would have done with your conversion? What did you do for rear brakes, brake lines, and e brakes?

With the spring adjusters fully extended, do you wish you would have done something different, ordered a different part?

How about You RonKahn?

I am still mocking up the front end with new parts. Hated the Helix garbage and bought all Heidts. The rear is done, but not on the ground yet to see how the 250springs will work. As soon as I get to the that point, I will definitely let all know.
