Have you thought about what that is going to do to the angle of your cv axles?

 

[corkey]

Well Eric ,as a matter of fact i have,,
at rest now the angle is just a bit under straight across, so at droop which it won't be that much , i should be okay, engine probably doesn't make enough power now to break cvs,

but the longer shock is for future use, , i am thinking new shock hoops, and a hoop over engine,

56 k, die slowly,,,

i will add a pic to here pete. hope you don't mind!

good to meet you finally by the way!

 

[corkey]

no, not at all, never seen it from that angle before, as i am usually the driver,,
and it was great to meet you too , ,
looks like i am trying to add another to the Explorer stable, ,

 

[corkey]

Hey Tim, got that pic of both of our Ex's in the driveway ?
that would be okay here as well ,

 

[vroomzoomboom]

comming right up!

 

[corkey]

i got a few pics, one of my car and Ex together, and next to a stocker.
just a bit of difference,

 

[corkey]

towed a boat the other day too, thought the hitch ball would be too high, but it was okay, ,

 

[techieman33]

You know that fiero is just about the right height to crawl up on for a really cool poser shot

 

[corkey]

except i would have to fix it afterwards, and i like the car, ,

 

[corkey]

in the new pics you can see the torsion bars, they are now gone and were only on there as an experiment, i was testing them over the coilovers, to see ride quality , even with them let off all the way they were too harsh after riding on coilovers for a few thousand miles, ,

could you possibly show a picture of your limit straps where they're mounted and how long exactly they are?

Thanks,

How did it feel while towing Pete? Inquiring minds need to tow---

 

[corkey]

Hey Jon
It towed fine except for one thing, my tired old engine just doesn't have what it used to.
the weight seemed okay on the hitch and the springs didn't sag out, they stayed up fine, it was cushy with the extra weight on the back, but not to the point of overdoing it, that is a very heavy boat, so all in all i would say it handled it well , ,

k i will take a pic of my limit straps today and post it when i get home so you can see them ..
