Front Suspension Upgrade
My '86NT had a "decent" front suspension under it, but, since I've got the car up in the air, and, I'm turning every bolt on it anyway, I may as well re-do the front suspension, too.
My old stuff = Eibach progressive rate springs and Tokico Blue strut cartridges.. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...trut_Tubes.jpg I kept the old strut assemblies from my 84T parts car. Wasn't thinking of using them when I tossed them in the pile, but, I'm glad I kept them. (Remember this point if you ever get ridiculed for keeping "too much junk laying around". http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...trut_Tubes.jpg Wow! Look at the difference between the OEM and the Suspension Technique. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3..._84T_Front.jpg A little cleaning, painting, new springs, Tokica Illuminas, bump stops, and dust boots make it all look new again. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...es_Rebuilt.jpg Adjustable, too. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...uster_Dial.jpg And back on the car. After the fender and wheel assembly are re-attached, no one will be able to see it. Photograph Temporarily Deleted Due To Technical Difficulties I already was using the big fat Koni/Nismo anti-sway bar, and all of bushing have been converted to Poly. She'll probably ride like a "hard-tail" with no suspension. |
Looking good....
But you better be taking off all week so you can finish up and be at our (TZCC) show next weekend !
