little e Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Can anybody tell me what the standard front spring rate is on Capri Mk2 with Pinto motor
wild pete Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 i wanted to know this coz i put some 2.8 springs on my pinto escort and i couldnt push the front down at all it was solid , ended up putting 170lbs for road use
samurai Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 I think this is the reason why my front end is still too high even tho the struts lower it by 1 1\2 inch!
wild pete Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 possibly , if you think about it they got to hold up the v6 thats a lot heavir than my pinto , what engine you got , also if you put roller top mounts on that can make it an inch higher , as well , ive got roleer mounts with rd276 springs from burtons pon my capri billys , for road use its fine not too low tho the roads r shit rnd here
samurai Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 i have pinto with standard 2.8i struts with springs,60 profile tyres,2.5 inch exhaust with 3 piece manifold and the exhaust is 3 inches from the road....i want to lower it 3 inches but would be scraping the road maybe i should get a coilover kit
