New Photos of Lester's Red Coiler

Post by suzukisam »

Struggling to find the right category, but my zook is always a project.

There's some new photos showing my new front custom coilover ranchos.

Enjoy

Noice.

Is there any more travel in the extended shot or is that full stretch?

What years of Zuk production were coil?

the extended shot is right out, the compressed was about 25mm off the bumpstop. the spring is just loose at full extension but I've had some spacers made so I can pack the spring perch up if required. the spring perch is on a sliding collar that seats on another collar welded to the base of a rs5000 shock, incidentally painted black to reduce questions at WOF time. the rough measure I got was the wheel was 700mm off the ground which for a 2065mm wheelbase is about RTI=1000 on a 20º ramp if i can remember trig properly.

coil samurais were sold new in nz mid 96 to late 98 then replaced by the jimny in early 99. the jimny is essentially the same in concept but all the parts are different.
