coil overs mtd. behind rear axle? Im thinking of moving my afco's to behind the axle. more of like a typical ladder bar or four link type of location. if anybody else has done this do you have pics? and im guessing that there is room between the rear and the phb i dont have my car here to actually see.
, and another 25.3 that is in the shop. It can be done...

You have to move the phb back, to the outer sides of the stock mounts, then reinforce them.. other then that it's a strait forward deal to do.
We're doing it with my car when it eventually gets into the shop. Better rear end control IMO when mounted in the back like that. You put a bar across the frame rails, and tie it into the back of the cage when doing this as well... makes for a nice solid point that the shocks can be attached to. Also a good place to mount the swaybar to at the same time. I'm going to use an ART promod anti rollbar, with this positioning, you can run a real good anti roll bar as well.. no limitations like when mounting on the bottom.
