OlderThanMe Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I just got my coilover stuff in the mail today...250 lb. rear 10" springs and the 225lb 10" springs are on their way because they are on backorder. I got the QA1 springs from http://www.summitracing.com and I got my carrera threaded sleeves and nut from http://www.A1racing.com . I just have to get some of that 2.5 in. exhaust tubing from a muffler shop somewhere for the top hat to center the spring...could get some scrap from an old exhaust or something. and I have a supply for the 2.0 in. tubing for the sleeve support. Now I just have to figure out where to get some ball-joints...I guess a Nissan dealership will have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackBeaut Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Vaguely on topic, could you tell me what the sleeves and nuts are made of, aluminium or steel? Cheers, Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
