Ive been thinking for a while... why cant our 3rd gens be put on coilovers? :scratch:
like so... http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=330954.
Seems like we would have even less modification to do...
Are there any problems?
Anyone actually done this?
Maybe fab some new upper and lower arms and find longer axles to make long travel possible?
And as far as the rear axles passing through the frame... has anyone ever thought of using frame notches(http://www.yourcustomcar.com/bolt-in-notch-universal.html) like the guys who slam their trucks?
Just throwing this out there seeing if anyone has input...
everybody has been waiting for a lift based off drops like a standard truck lift... but id rather have travel any day!
Any input would make this easier! Thanks!
