Ok all you Spit Racers. Spill your guts!!!!
I have been looking for some time at the front of Tiny Tim to see how I could
manage to lower it an inch or two.
I had previously cut a coil from a pair of GT6 springs and installed Spax
adjustable shocks. I thought that would make the height just about right.
To my surprise, it sits exactly the same height as my street Spit. :(
So I started checking around to see what else was available. Talked to Ted S.
and his Carrera adjustable setu costs $225 per side. Then I talked to
BPNW (where I bought my SPAX) and they said that SPAX has a front shock with
adjustable ride height. Oh boy, thought I and took advantage of a
special deal (100 bucks each).
Today they came in and I installed them. The lowest I can get the front is
exactly the same height it was. But I can raise it about 2 inches.
:( Not exactly what I had in mind.
So I ask, what are you guys doing to lower these cars in the front? I suppose
that I can relocate the shock towers but that would require a lot more
work that I had in mind. There has to be a simpler and less expensive way to
accomplish this.
All input will be greatly appreciated.
