Well The MCA's where custom built for Max suspention travel.
I also run 300 LB/IN X 10" springs front with 1,25" preloaded
and 350 LB/IN X 12" springs rear with 0 ish preload
O and i think the shocks were $5800 :shock: I just said some numbers over the phone :roll:

Random talk from a tarmac rally I went to a few nights back. A chap running his hipo, AWD jap mobile runs 2000lb rear springs....2000lb!!! It is normally a circuit car running on slicks soft enough to sink in so needs springs like that so it doesnt fall over in the corners.
