Has anybody here made their own coil-overs? I've seen quite a few postings on PFF on how to do it, but most mention parts that I have absolutely no idea where they got them, if they're still available yada yada yada..... Sooooooo, my question is, if I want to do coil-overs, where can I get the parts, and what do I need? I guess I'm looking for a Bill Of Materials with suppliers. It all looks fairly straight forward (Doesn't it always? :o ) but I figured there must be somebody here in the Great White North that can point me in the right direction. I found a kit on eBay from Ground Control, but after doing a bit of research I decided against it, especially after a few folks referred to them as 'junk', one of whom I trust his opinion as he's not one to criticize unless he knows what he's talking about.

Cheers,

Cameron

I saw that you and a couple of others had commented on the quality, so I figured I'd be better off going elsewhere and making my own. One thread said they got all their parts from Summit Racing, but didn't go into specifics except for the springs. I wrote them asking if they knew what I needed and the replied with the following:

Any idea what the length and diameter ore of the sleeve?

Anyone?
