Camaro Shocks

[IronFreak]

That might be the case, but if in-fact your shock is supporting weight like that, expect it to go out faster....your springs aren't doing there job if they sag that much.

[ToPLeSS(e30)FeinD]

If any of you have owned a Ford Explorer, u can second this. The difference in height on a car between brand new shocks and blown out shocks is small but noticeable. Both of you are right, on cars too light to provide sufficient weight to prove this theory, the difference is finite. But it does exist.

Side Note: Wasn't this thread regarding Camaro shocks and similar applications? Let's try to keep it on topic. And PLEASE read before asking questions. The redundancy in this thread is getting out of hand.

[Mr. Tasty]

this is leading to the same idea that indeed pistons have 0 velocity at TDC and BDC and stop. I am just saying that the height is not initially governed by shock compression.

I have read through this entire thread, considering the front mr2 shocks and cutting the housings down 2 inches and running them with my ground control coilover conversion kit. Has anyone used this setup with camber plates...? Would you run MR2 camber plates? or...

[einstein57]

Chris had the struts turned down 1mm

[KW E30]

is the mr2 rear struts fit e30 front struts without modification? how about the camaro shock they fit without modification? thanks

[Rockwool2117]

far as camro shocks go would gas adjusts be somewhat compatable with eibach pros. or should i just buy bilsteins sports

Its been a while since I surfed this forum. If camaro struts are truly an option, might I suggest a premium option for those of you who are track oriented.. QA1. They make single and double adjustable struts and 276 different valve options.

I bought those! Got um for $65 + shipping. I'm installing them today.

Amazon has a warehouse deal on the adjustable MR2 rear. There is only 1 left at $44. There were three but somepone just bought two for no reason.

so this sleeve to make the rear bushings on the camaro shocks fit snug on the m12 bolt, any info on what to look for at home depot/lowes?

you can get a 1/2 inch to 12mm step down spacer (part no BD4-Z005A02) from eshocks for for about $4ea

[Mr. Tasty]

so just to clarify, which I think should be done on the first page.


for the e30 front you can use:
aw11 front or rear shocks?


for the e30 rear you can use:
87 or w.e-2002 camaro rears?

I have a quick question regarding the KYB AGX Camaro rear shocks. I'm seeing compressed heights for Bilstein's in this thread but have not found the compressed/extended heights for the KYB AGX's (not sure if they would match the Bilsteins or not). I ask because I'm considering fitting some on my bagged BMW 2002 and need specific compressed/extended heights for the rear shocks. If someone could post those specs it would be appreciated!
