Coil over kits

[ppost]

Anybody installed coilover kits with just front coilover and back adjustable spring setup?

I have that exact setup. Maximum Motorsports coiliver in front, Maximum Motorsports rear control arms with adjustable spring perch. Rids and handles fantastic.

Nice looking car What was the cost. I’ve seen them range from $799 to $1700? I’m a little Leary of the cheaper ones

I picked up a Granatelli front coil over kit (15-20 years ago) as I was building parts for a someday project. Currently running that on the front (with 300 in-lbs springs). I did an anti-squat bracket in the rear which dropped the lower control arm rear mount down about 2" and used a stock type arm and springs. It was too low so I needed an adjustable spring perch to bring it back up a bit. Picked a pair up on eBay for $50 I think. The Granatelli kit was $150-200 back then.

No complaints with either set up. I was going budget build all the way.

Thank you for your reply. Saw a lot on l.m.r. I think they were sr brand

Essentially what my kit was. Probably the same manufacturer, just different name on the box.

My goal is about a inch and a half drop. I’m still on the fence about just lowering springs and struts or coilover kit

Everyone will have their personal preference/budget. I would not put anything other than Maximum Motorsports stuff in my car. The front coilover kit was $400, but I already had the Bilstein struts. The struts are another $400.
