ScaleDale Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Nice links. I did this free hand with styrene rod and tube using a pin vise to anchor the wire. This is better. I've seen it done using a screw to guide the wire for the even spacing. Dale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
393stroker Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 I had seen another thread on here with all chrome looking coilovers too. I cant find it now, but these will work. Thanks a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown03SVT Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Probably scratch built out of aluminum tubing with machined rod ends and shock shafts. Pretty sure I saw that thread when I search for coil overs. Nice stuff, but above my level of skill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
