        Switched the rear springs to e36 vert springs, also added another pad. The rear sits about an inch higher now.

            Right now the rear shocks are stock. They are way too short and stop the tire like 4 inches before full droop. However I wont put longer shocks in until I make some limit straps so it won't ruin the cvs. I may make some spacers to lower the upper mount a bit. It feels like on some bumps it droops til the shocks stop it an it pulls the tires off the ground

                        Looks like soo much fun.. lots of win in these pics..
                        I put my 2 door alpine on jack stands today getting ready for the vert and e36 springs. Would you say go with the convertible or coupe spring ?
                        I got a huge piece of aliminum too , trying to make a one piece skid plate from front to rear.
                        thanks so much for this thread.. I cant wait to do some remote camping in the durty.

                          Depends on how much weight you will carry, my car is always loaded heavy so I used the stiffer vert spring. If your car is stripped and light weight then coupes should be fine.
