I'm sure these pictures will make some jealous, but damn it's going to take some time to put on

D2 re-sprung to 700/400 for those who are curious.

After that she will go to Texas track works for an alignment and corner balance. I'm super curious to see what she weighs. Which I will do with a full tank to give the most accurate idea.

Those rear toe Adjustments look very familiar to my original design who's copyin me

NIKDSC5

Haha I mean, who is using a threaded tube and heim joints as toe rods.... A lot of people is copying you.

Naf

Hmmm, how much you pay?

NIKDSC5

iTrader: (10)

I honestly cannot remember. They are on CS's website. I bought them as part of a group buy with the heim joint design instead of poly since I wanted zero flexibility in that part. With all these parts I'm hoping to have near zero hop with drag radials and a prepped track. Not that it's bad now, but it still happens a little here and there. Short of mounting the cradle solid, I see no other improvement to the rear end.

Should have known they would...

I remember them commentin on mine when i did them...

Its a better adjustable design than bmr but i welded my helms on the end rather than using a nut jam...

Guess they didn't copy you after all

Good luck with the install! I went through mine last summer when i did the 8.8, they sub cradle's were the worst of the bunch. What end links are those?

NIKDSC5

iTrader: (10)

Cradle bushings are already installed. Only have to drop the cradle to install the trailing arms. And the end links are from a supra. They will have to be cut down to fit.

The endlinks for the rear or for the front are for the supra?

I see the loose ones are like mine, i like them, but the ones for the rear lower arm i dont recognize, and why would you make the lower arm adjustable???

D2 re-sprung to 700/400 for those who are curious.








I am curious. Were you able to order the D2s with the different spring rates or did order new springs separately.

NIKDSC5

iTrader: (10)

The rear lower arm comes from CS exactly like you see it. So those end links I guess you would say are theirs. This the front links are from the supra. Fuzzy logic had a post about them somewhere. I will look it up.

As for the adjustable lower arm why not? Same reason you notched your front lower arm mount?

The D2 can be ordered with different springs, however not what I wanted, and it takes for ever to order them custom. No, I just bought some eibach springs and did it myself.

by 700/400, you mean 700 rear, 400 front, right? i sure hope so.

NIKDSC5

iTrader: (10)

Oh yeah, why is that?

and no, 700 front, 400 rear.

Bio248

the rear needs way more spring than the front does. that's why i have 12/16k F/R (672/896).

...unless you run them as a true coilover

Naf

iTrader: (1)

Ya i am runnin more spring in the front than in the rear but much lower numbers

I think 550f
But 525r for sure

Bio248

my reading comprehension and attention span are lacking today, apparently.

that makes a lot of difference. i was debating it, but there ended up being no benefit to doing it for me as well as made inner wheel clearances more sketchy because of the added spring diameter.

soooo, nevermind. those are the same rates the LG coilovers use when run as a true coilover...so yeah.

NIKDSC5

iTrader: (10)

Plus if you look the new rear lower control arms do not allow for a spring. So, you have to run it in true coil over mode.

As for the wheel clearance, I will report back once installed.

Bio248

yeah, i had a case of the dumbs. it happens.
