I've read a few times that if you are fitting coilovers that you have to have the rear struts reinforced so the big question is how many people have had this done or is it a myth

 

i never did on the old setup, but i have now.

they arnt close up pics of the strengthening, but you can certainly see whats been done.

 

fookin hell kelv,thats bomb proof!!!!!!! no chance of the struts popping through with that set up
most folk dont bother to be honest but the rear arches around the struts normally has to be "dressed" with a big hammer to give clearance for the springs as there is very little room

 

Nick, im certainly hoping they do the job

 

stop tormenting me with the pics kelv. i cant wait to see it finished and get down to take pics of her.

 

im sure it will

 

That might be a bit ott for a pair of coilovers for the road /track and try to keep the interior in

 

you could always use one of the Danny B rear strut braces and aid it by having the rear turrets welded.
(the rear triangle sections where my cage comes down to join the rear turrets)
