I was wondering what sort of susspension setups everyone has. I'd like to get rid of the leafs and perhaps go with coilovers in the rear. I Know a great susspension guy that works on 9sec cars and faster. So I"m sure he can rigg up some crazy setup. I was curious if anyone else with a Mav has some cool rear susspeinsion in their car, and what sort of problems other people have encounterd. My leafs are dead and so basicly I'm thinking of redoing the whole rear susspension, and at that point I'm just going to throw some good dough at it and get something cool looking with good preformance. Just basicly wanting opinons/advice.
My dad's car had an intresting set up on it. Of course this takes some money and serious modification to the body and structure of the car. http://5hp.hill.cc/hotrod/pictures/28.jpg http://5hp.hill.cc/hotrod/pictures/30.jpg
Well, my Maverick is a street car, not a drag-racer. I have cut coils up front, with a 7/8" front sway-bar w/polyurethane bushings, and Monroe gas-charged shocks. The rear is 4-leaf heavy duty leaf springs with poly-urethane bushings, and Monroe gas-shocks. Someday I'll put a sway-bar on rear as well...
Well, I got coil-overs and ladder bars.....IMO, that stuff is overkill unless you are going to do some racing and put down some big ponies.....Street car stuff is so good now. But its your ride.
