i want to stiffen up the rear of my mrk 2... like really stiff
what's the cheapest set of hardest shockies avaliable???

like something out of a rodeo or somthing lol..

stiff rear sucks. unless all you want to do is drift sideways everywhere..

i have reset rear leafs with extra leaf added and gaz shocks.

even with new tires iv had the tail end skip out on me in the dry just from hitting bumps on corners.

but if thats what you want, adjustable shocks, and a rear swaybar will help. maybe even panelvan springs?

yeah i wanna get sideways lol...

yeah a sway bay wouldn't go a stray i might have to try and scorce one.. i dont really know how they bolt up thou...

I have an old k-mac rear bar you can have. It bolts through the rails.
It's got all the bolts to fit it.
I run van springs with another set of main leafs, eyes cut off the ends, and sandwished together. With the longer lenth leafs running forward to stop the diff from tramping.
Changing direction is the biggest differance on thr road.

yeah that would be awesome
how much are u asking?? where r u located?

also i dont understand the tramp thing... how can one more leaf stop it from tramping? and it sounds like ur moving the position of them?? im tripin out lol

chris

When you accelerate the diff wants to send the tailshaft up though the floor.
The leaf springs transfer that same force to the car body.

Have a look under a Capri or German RS2000. They have the soft skinny leafs with a arm attached to the body, like GT Falcons did back then. We lucked out with the eskies.

Cal tracks? would be an idea, they are leaf spring supports for heavy loads.
$50 including postage for the rear sway bar?

sway bar sounds good...

does anyone have a photo of how it mounts because i have a fuel cell hanging through the floor... im not sure if it will clear where it mounts

thanks

You really don't want a rear sway bar anyway.

+1 to MaxRs. Don't make the back too stiff or it will skip all over the road and you'll lose cornering speed. A rear sway bar will hold the bum flatter but on dirt/rough bitumen that's not always a good thing. If the back can move it'll track on the road better. A bit of body roll isn't always a bad thing.
