ive been wondering what to do to the car next and that Shelby Drop looks awesome! Shelby Drop... it would be amazing to have the car set a little lower towards the Cragars/TA's
Be careful with the shelby drop.It tends to put the upper ball joint at a weird angle causing it to fail... I have seen them fail and I have seen cars run with the drop and never have a problem.Just putting the info out there...
yea i'll do some research. probably wont happen soon but any reinforcing or cutting that would be necessary my grandparents run a welding and muffler shop so im covered there. back when the buisiness was in california my grandpa lowered looooots of cars. it was right on the street where the racetrack in Corona was...
it should look something like this when done. mustang people do it alot... basically just lowering the car down as far as i know
the "Shelby Drop" Re-locates your upper controll arms approximately one inch lower on the car to improve steering geometry in corners.It forces the top of the wheel to lean in(toward the car) rather than out(away from the car) on turns to improve the tires contact with the road Better front tire grip in corners
look at the pic matterick posted.See how the tire on the inside of the turn is tilted back towards the car??? thats what the shelby drop does to increase contact of the tire on the inside of the turn.It will lower the ride height about 1/2 to3/4ths of an inch up front.
i think i would just drop the car not go through the whole changing the offset or w/e they call it lol of the tires. Speaking of which matterick you said your gpa did a lot of lowering of cars right? does that mean you know how to do it?
i sure wish. im actually an employee there! i work there all summer and when i get my liscense in january i'll work during the school year too!. i'm the cleanup boy. and after shop hours, i take my turn at the welder
unfortunetly mine doesnt have coils... i have leaf springs unless ive gone full retard and with leaf springs i have coil? lol man theres to much to learn oh my
Nah no tardege here but your car does have coils(In front)and leaf springs in back. Did I mention there will be a quizz on this stuff???
