84-87 Coilover mod extreme

[LD85]

OK, I bought the Coil-over part list from Mo's website, home

Since the 1985 shock towers are wimpy and narrow, I cut them as seen in the pic below.

Then I machined some 1/4" thick 1018 CRS to match the same angles as the stock towers and ol'RJ welded them up.

The last pic is just the mock up of the new QA1 in the new tower.

We will weld the towers on tomorrow and i will post some new pics in a few days, once the wheel well area is cleaned and repainted,.





Welded the fabricated CRS towers on
welded on, will wire brush and paint this week



I decided to put new ball joints in,, what a PITA,,also decided to use Rubber undercoat for the wheel wells and finally, I bougth new SS brake lines.

Should have both wheel wells completed by Saturday eve, brakes bled etc,, then I picked up the crank and PP and FW today,
