BoonZ Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Here is a 240 rubber strut mount modified for height adjustment. The mount was bored to 1.5 inch a steped coller was pressed in. The ID is threaded for a Jack screw. The screw is 1-14TPI bored .625 ID for1.125 inch to fit over the strut. Then drill and tap for the strut threads. The top was countered bored .625 to allow access to the strut adjustment and a hex was broached in it for turning. The spring cap is pressed on the end.

JMortensen Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Wow! Cool idea if you wanted to lift the rear end. Would need holes in the hood up front to run it. Very NASCAR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Interesting. Do you have a way to lock out the jack screw after adjustment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Not to speak for the OP, but I had something like this on my truck and there were no jam nuts and it never moved. You can get them though. Several options here:http://eastcoastspeed.com/c-701479-suspension-front-weight-jacks-jack-bolts.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoonZ Posted February 7, 2018 Author Share Posted February 7, 2018 I ordered jam nuts. But I am not sure if I will go with them or make a tall skinny nut that comes out of the hole. I like touring so the car will see different loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
