coil overs

[76bonanza]

I really had my heart set on getting a set of coil overs for my rear to replace my 4 inch blocks. But I am hearing a lot of negative things about CPP the only people I know that sell a bolt on kit for the rear. Does anyone else sell a bolt on kit? Or should I just put on 4 inch drop springs and not worry about the coil overs? Thanks

The coilovers are nice, (I don't have them, there was a article in a magazine). I've dealt with CPP in the past with no problems, but it's been about a year ago and I have heard bad things lately. If you do decide to use them CALL and talk to someone, don't order them if they aren't in stock! You should also get the name of the guy you are talking to, ordering from the internet cuts out some of the personal aspects of doing business.

As far as your drop the springs are a better solution than 4 " lowering blocks, those blocks are kinda dangerous, I would not go more than 2" blocks. The problem is the trailing arm gets below the rim edge so if you have a rear flat the trailing arm contacts the road. Also, the springs are much cheaper than coilovers, if you are cheep like me, the springs are the way to go.

Good luck, Rg
