Coilovers, cooking recipe Part 2 - logbook Toyota Cresta, 1984
Here is the long-awaited kit
Assembly will take a minimum of time
It is necessary to pump the stem, back and forth, and then keep it in a vertical position, everything is like on a jig)
The supports are different, right - left, do not confuse. The collapse decided to immediately fill up the little guy / ____
Such are the cola turned out
the main thing here is not to leave everything, palms are a useful thing))
beautifully indescribable, I'm afraid to imagine how cool it is to work

Gleb, can you set up the production of budget stakes in Russia? after all, nothing worse than the factory turned out, and the price tag you kind of said was 900uev! very tasty!
By the way, why didn't you put dusters?
Support) I would take =)
By the way, specify, 27 is only for the front? because the rear can be a much easier option? for example from 90-100s?
you can think about it, but only in small batches if) you
didn’t bother with anthers, there seems to be something to ride in the mud)

If the back and front are the same, then you can do it according to the same principle!
And it means that it will turn out not about 25, but 50 for everything you will have to give if you do as you did ... it’s
not easier to take all four in full ...
The rear suspension is structurally different, the shock absorber is separate, the spring is separate
. Although it is possible to do
yeah!) only the wheel bearings remained small! (I completely redid the front end on my own!
I am amazed! It's just crazy! Like from the factory and you can’t even say that it’s custom =)
I take it you only adjust the height?
Cool! It's nice to see when hands from the right place grow and are sharpened for the right thing! :)) Respect!
Gorgeous! Gleb, could you tell me the parameters of this nut and threaded pipe, I would order from a turner ...
The Japanese go and nothing, I think I can handle it. By the way, it’s not the cups that knock, but the AL connection, at least on my Suba
Yes, I know what they are called, I didn’t get smart here :) If you drive in a straight line or on twisted nuts until the moment when the spring rests on the cup, then you can, but in general they will knock, you will hear how you put it on :)
that's right, these things are called "Helpers" and are absolutely not necessary in my case
, I don't have a rally car)
unfinished! on the pictures you can see that the spring does not rest against the upper cup, it will hang on the hung wheel ... under the threaded nut you still need a spring with a thin bar ... Or am I saying something wrong? :) But in general, handsome! you will have them adjustable only in height, unfortunately not in terms of stiffness :(
Crap! Class! And most importantly, I got everything brand new … but it costs a lot =) A hammer and the highest praise for the work done! Where are your hands from? =)
Firmly straight turned out) class. We are waiting for the first reports on flights and sea trials =)
and the appearance of the external + secrets inside, no matter how, + OWN hands! Petersburg brother huge respect!)
Thanks for the advice, but I think in my case it will be reinsurance, because I plan to use the car on the ring, there is another one for every day.
As an expert, dispel my doubts about pumping the shock absorber (rod) before installation. Is this a necessary procedure?
bump necessarily, because soon there will be no ammortikov. so on some bump it will break the lower valve on the shock absorber drain piston + necessarily anther, dust + dirt will eat the stem and tear the stuffing box ...
I have been dealing with shock absorbers for 6-7 years
Well, you are muddy, the most important thing in this whole car and alterations is your hands and head. Finish with the body kit, the final version, I think, will be just a feast for the eyes.
Incomparable work by the hands of an engineer from God!
It's nice to look at the well-coordinated approach no less than the result itself!
how much, if not a secret, a set of racks got up. And how to choose for the car, by what criteria.
I also want to get confused with my rear ones ... only the price tag is too steep when buying as you took ... mine, Jick and Geyofis are worth the drain ... and so respects definitely to you!
cool job =)
I did the same for myself, only I sharpened the pieces of iron myself. It didn’t turn out so glamorous, but it’s 2 times cheaper

thanks =)
yes, nowhere yet. favorite crap, but two. =) And, accordingly, time is not catastrophic.)
but did on my first typewriter Levin ae85.
a little later and here, on the drive, I'll strike a couple of lines. it will become a bit freer =)
And the cross is really very wrapped up. Congratulations on winning. And most importantly, without the collective farm and half-naked aunts. =)
Class! I also have a rebuild of racks going on right now. Zhik is interested in how you selected the supports? I have dead front...
For several days now I have been going to look at the baldet.
Everything is cool.
So I look and think, at first your lower "cup" was much wider so that the spring did not fall out, you, of course, put the springs on already, but are they securely standing there?
these are helpers, (supporting springs) they are always put together with gas-oil racks, because they raise their rods. and for everyday use I would recommend for any similar coilovers
Good evening =) the screws turned out to be handsome, of course, respect for the work =)
I wanted to ask, can you tell me ... there are such racks s3.images.drive2.ru/car.j...88cd4f0710086326-main.jpg
On the A-pillar, two springs … one stronger, the other almost childish =)
Why is this little one needed?
Thanks =))
Yadlo! Thank you for such a detailed description! I will try to repeat your feat on my sky))) And then I was tormented to look for a set of ready-made coils!
somewhere in contact I found a video of how evil Japs are doing similar work, in the example - khachiroka, in photos and in Russian it’s somehow more pleasant, well done, not everyone decides on such measures, everyone is only looking for secrets for themselves, and you went Feng Shui =))) )
Yeah. Not expected. It turned out just beautiful.
And how about the operation right now? Are there weak points? What-thread changed?
I read everything and thought about it ... I now have an AE85 with a dead, 100% suspension. At first I was going to drag a used cola from the yacht, but after looking at what comes up in the end (such as a leaky and bent rack after an accident) ... maybe he will also get fooled like that? Does it make sense at all to make a self-propelled gun at 85/86 or are ready to take it cheaper? Thanks in advance! )
By the way, the screws themselves go, they didn’t rust over the winter, otherwise the metal is open, maybe something, it’s like aluminum at the company, it’s a little easier for him ... or you lubricated the thread with Movil, or salidolchik ... I’m just thinking of doing this myself ... it’s so interesting for the winter carving will not end? I'm thinking of sharpening screws from aluminum, and weld metal rings onto the racks into which the screws will abut. Or how to process metal ... bluing, galvanizing or nickelizing.
Mega cool! ! !
Everything turned out very high quality, but I can say that I did it from improvised means ... Well done! I respect this approach!
Well done! A lot of work has been done and they look no worse than the factory ones. How did you lower the rear? Did you just cut the springs? Did you drop the subframe by any chance?
