5 lug lift re-du

My downey set up broke so im trying this set up

 

very interested on the coil overs you are doing. my downey kit is starting to sag and get stiffer. id love to here some feedback and where you got the coil overs from.

 

Ordered from summit racing they are qa1 promo star single adjustable. i just put a loop adapter up top to make em work

 

Looks good how does it drive?

 

Alot smother than the downey i had. I still have to get an alignment alot of neg camber

 

Sorry possitve camber hopefully an alignment will fix it

 

You might need new uppers.

 

U think. I havet thought of that i didnt know what change they would make

 

This is my Downey set up with fabtech uppers. It they keep everything pretty ligned up. I'm trying to get some uniballs for the uppers so these will be for sale soon.

 

I would love those lowers also haha do they still make em

 

And my uppers are touching the bumpstops. Did u remove urs or just not it the pic

 

Sad to say Downey is long gone and these arms are super hard to find. I was thinking of fabing up some replicas and selling them. I cut my bumps off i have some aftermarkets but i never welded them on.

 

For got to tell you, on your uppers you can mount your ball joints on the bottom of the arms like they are on my fabtech arms it will give you a little more clearance. Like this but on the bottom

 

That is a great idea im going to do this. Looks like it would make the upper ball joint not so angled

 

@chrismxpx I was wondering if this was what you used to convert the coil overs to stud tops?

Actually this

 

Bolted up just fine. I had to grind out some of the inner spring holder so the bolts would not get in the way

 

I takes like 1 inch of travel away but i am happy with the overall ride. The right side tends to creek when i turn hard so im trying to see if its the angle on the ball joint or something else

 

oh okay cool I saw those ones online as well. Hmm that could be the ball joint but I would check and grease the bushings on the upper control arm, because my whole front suspension creeks and its because I didn't grease the bushings when I installed the new arms
