He said something about feals rear coilover being too short, for what I wanted to build, causing axle travel issues with daily driving, and can come loose, that that can happen with a lot of “true rear” coilovers.He was also quick to point out that he thought that the default spring rates of 8kfront/5krear were way too stiff for daily driving with some light drag racing. That they were a great option for motor cross but not for my build.He then suggested that if wanted to have the ability to lower my car, go with the stock replacement rear upper control arms, the heavy duty adjustable rear control arms, super sport springs in the rear, and whatever front coilover I wanted, provided the rate was around 4k which he said was optimal for what I wanted to build (a fun 300-350hp street car I can daily and street race my friends with). He told me he didn’t care what brand of dampeners I used, as long as they were the same throughout the car. He also suggested a panhard bar, poly a arms in the front, and most importantly, subframe connectors.I guess I’m just looking for perspective, and more info, since he said a lot but it was hard for me to keep up with, being brand new to suspension. I’ve also never heard anyone suggest such soft springs in the front, or complain about “true rear” coilovers (not that I think he was lying, just that I haven’t seen any info on that)Suspension is complicated as hell.</blockquote>
