Hi Guys,

Wondering what sort of shocks you have used in 1200/ 120y struts, good/ bad/ prices?

Also is anyone aware of a slightly shorter stroke shock to fit these struts, to help keep really short springs captive at full droop. If not, i'm thinking of shortening the strut above the spring mount (where the shock screws into the strut), to sit the shock lower in the strut for better travel and to keep the coil captive.

Thoughts???

Cheers!

I used Rabbit inserts to build my Coilovers.

Have a look here: http://datsun1200.com/modules/mediawi ... Strut_Insert_Part_Numbers

Golf/rabbit inserts are the way too go, they are a great upgrade because they are a fair bit shorter soo when you go lower it reduces your chances of bottoming out and they are fairly stiffer

Thanks Guys,

Looking into a weld on coilover kit for it at the moment, we'll see how it goes

If your after a coilover kit, check out http://www.otomoto.com.au/HDSystems/sleevekits.htm
I bought a kit from em and its pretty good quality, plus u get to choose what spring rate you want.

Thanks mate, thats the one i'm looking into, heard lots of good things about them,

Cheers
