Default Quick and Easy Coilover Conversion Pics

Hey guys,

Just wanted to share a quick solution we came up with for adding height to the A6 coilovers for use on the AR. Due to that fact that the customer is eventually going with higher quality suspension and machined spacers, we decided to just modify his old H&R's to use for now.

Pretty basic, we simply welded a plate higher up on the shock mount for the rear, and cut and extended the lower shock rod for the fronts. The set-up adds 2", and obviously uses the A6 upper plate in the front instead of adapting to the stock.

Material cost: Less than $10.
