Hi guys, here is my coilover setup...

2. Welding






3. Black powder coating




Detailed picture of coil over support, with interior center lip

Interior spacer for fit the VW rabbit BILSTEIN shocks

The job is finished


Thanks for the help in the FAQ!!

Hi Fernando,

Looks great!

Where did you get the piece that holds the coilovers in place? (see pic)

Thanks,
Maikel

Maikel, the piece was made in steel machined with custom dimensions. Below i attached a pic with the diagram for the FAQ people.

The image of the right side applies for ground-control coilovers, i'm not sure if Ireland Engineering or another brand has the same length.

Fernando can you email me the specs for the diagram. I cannot read the dimensions.
Thank you.

Good timing on the post- I'm about to do the same. What is that material for the spacer that goes under the shock insert?

Pete
