I would think the picture make it obvious..

you need those parts to keep the spring hat in place against the shock rod when it is bolted into the car

Parts list.. More detail..

Here is what you need:

First, you can drill cut and modify front and rear of the car for the front sway bar and top rear shock, Although you have to cut on the rear no matter what.
Carter makes a relocation kit for $220 seen here http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread....highlight=Coil

for use of the speedway kits, you need my custom designed piece..
Carter sells these for $120 for the set

you will need the kit Dominic posted or similar

91046236-BIL COIL OVER KIT 5" SLEEVE $39.99
http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Coilov...eeve,2184.html

Hyperco Springs ( link is for 425#)
44410-425 10" HYPERCOIL COILOVER $59.99 $119.98
http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Hyperc...Inch,7249.html

I have 425 front 275 rear, I think 300 rear might be better but I never swapped

You will also need your Shocks grooved.. Bilstein did this and you should be able to find a local place to do it (Haiback also does this or can get it done for you)


so $520 TOTAL (not included grooving shocks or the Relocation kit as both this or DRM will need those)

That is what I did, but I did the front before Carters Relocation kit, but bought just the rear kit from him

I bought I nice set of shocks from a member which Im was thinking of converting to coilovers. IS the list above all I need? I like the lower mounting bracket that Van Steel sells for their kit, any thoughts? Also should I send them to Bilstein to get redone since they have about 70k on them? Thanks for any & all help
