HICKL Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I need to chat with someone who has installed Ross' coilovers. I bought a set and have a few questions but he is on vacation I believe and I need some input. In no way do I mean for this to sound like a complaint against Ross. He has been awesome to talk to and deal with, I just need some help and he is out of pocket. Anybody have a pic of the whole system in place that shows the top as well as the bottom. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HICKL Posted June 28, 2004 Author Share Posted June 28, 2004 Ok, I'm missing the pc that sits right on top of the spring and the thick spacer above the washers, or is that a stock pc? Anybody have rough dimensions on that top spring plate? I could make my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HICKL Posted June 28, 2004 Author Share Posted June 28, 2004 I just don't want to wait! His e-mail gave an out of office reply that they would be out until July 6. I run a machine shop so it wouldn't cost me anything to fab it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HICKL Posted June 29, 2004 Author Share Posted June 29, 2004 Thanks Madman, I am using the short threaded tubes, what is the location to weld the ring on those? Seems like I have seen 1" above the old lower perch, is that correct? Does anybody have a copy of Ross' instructions that they could send to me? Lastly, somehow I didn't get the top perch pc, does anyone have a detail pic of this so I could see what it is and make my own? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmanadam Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Your welcome, Mine is set up with 10" tubes with the tube ~1/8 from the top. How long are your tubes? I could not find my e-mails from Ross, but I will look again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With unsectioned 280z strut tubes in a 240z my rear sits a bit higher than expected. good luck Juan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
