They are not all that expensive. I got mine for $300, true Calvert brand, and you really cannot beat the look, fit, and quality of them.
I didn't see that part. That may get you in trouble. But not fabbing up a set for your own use.
Of the internet. And you know, the internet is never wrong! Lots of guys make them from scratch. Who is going to stop you? Get the dimensions...
Mine said tighten until they touch the springs, while the weight is on the ground. Then crank it 1/4 turn tighter on each side to preload. If...
Don't knock it. It was likely cheaper than my billet grille!
I don't see much difference between the Caltracs and the other one posted above. Instead of welding, Calvert uses a solid aluminum busing on the...
I haven't tried mocking it up, so i wasn't sure if it would. Not sure if it would benefit from it at all, even if it DID fit.
And the stock swaybar is going to be too small for my new front end, isn't it? I have no idea what size the stock one is but it seems pretty small.
Well, if my rear springs are as stiff as they are, and these guys want it looser, I guess this is NOT a good idea for my car.
Other than busted knuckles and a headache? Can I use the one from my front just moved to the back? I have a spare just laying around... I think...
I have already pounded and cut on mine, to the tune of $200 (worth of my time!). I gotta track down my old body buddy!
I might do that as well. But i am not a body guy. How much did he charge for the job?
Some guy will walk along, see those cars, and go "that is the exact same car I had in high school/got married in/had my first child in/lost my...
It didn't stiffen mine up enough to prevent the tires from getting eaten by the fender lips on hard launches...
I have 4-leafs from JC Whitney, and they didn't lift the rear more than 1/2". I don't find them too stiff. But I also don't like my car to swim...
I just bought a 5-pak of cheap ones yesterday, harbor freight. Not sure if they will cut it. :biglaugh: I will look for better blades today....
You are all welcome to come and help, or watch! I have hated those shock towers since I first got this car, and tried to put in new spark plugs...
So, I guess I am ready to start cutting! Bought a set of sawzall blades today, and the spot weld cutters. Probably won't get time to mess with...
Oh! Well then, I have the EXACT SAME instructions! :rl: But i just finished watching a 30-minute long youtube video where they put one into a...
Welder says it can handle 1/8" max. The material on the crossmember where it welds to the frame is 1/8"
