    Coilover conversion using sprint and tokico?

    Hi
    Does someone make a kit that sells just perches or something so that I can turn my front Sprint Springs and Tokico struts into adjustable coilovers? I want to drop the front a tad... or raise it up lowrider style if I'm in the mood

    Yes someone does offer kits that let you use your front springs.
    They cost $35 per corner. Since they use the same 2.5" diameter springs that our car uses in the front, they can be used. But only in the front, unless you buy some 2.5"diameter springs for the rear (our rear springs are wider than 2.5"diameter in the rear).

    I have no idea what the difference between version 1 and version 2 is. Give them a call. I think the name of the guy that answers the phone is blane

    Guess you'll have to call them on the phone eric. Don't be surprised it they try to talk you out of doing what you want to do. Stick to your guns and get the answers you need.

    Hey Jim do you have these bearings? I think they would make a good improvement in handling/road feel, especially on car with worn out rubber

    No I was going to get them, but never got around to buying them.
    I sure wanted them though.
