Re: Long Travel / Coil Over REAR suspension?
Scotty, are the Heims really necessary on the outside parallel links? I know they tend to be very noisey. You thing bolt and bushings would work on both ends of each bar? I was thinking about using 1" square tube I have laying around for the engine mount and parallel bars, weld some steel pipe on each end and use a tube of window urethane to create bushings. Should be soft enough to allow some twisting motion. Thoughts?

Re: Long Travel / Coil Over REAR suspension?
Are there heims that don't squeek? What about using ball joints on the axle end? Anyone ever try it?

Re: Long Travel / Coil Over REAR suspension?
If your Heim joints squeak, put a chain bar oil or a bicycle chain oil on them. Stops the squeak right now. If the heim joints wear out....replace 'em and do it again.

Re: Long Travel / Coil Over REAR suspension?
@scottyb - Would you mind posting a couple of more pic's of the attachment points at the axle as well as the top support for the shocks?
Also any info on the shocks/coils you used would be much appreciated. Nice setup, by the way! |
