We have always had our G2 Bilstein/Hyperco coil-over shock package,
but many of our customers wanted an adjustable shock, so we went to work
to make a first-class package just the way I would want it for a race
car without welding new mounts in place. This is what we came up with
and we did it with no compromises. There are other coil overs out there
but they are full of compromises. We did our best to avoid the
compromises.
We have a spherical bearing set up on our shocks in all mounting
locations other than the bottom of the rear shock "Fork" mount. We did
this because of the precision that the bearing offers. Precise and
smooth operation that does not interfere with the shock function.
Spherical bearings are the best option for coil-over mounts. Rubber
mounts cause a "Trampoline" effect that must be overcome before the
shock can actually work. Rubber also changes the spring rate momentarily
until fully compressed. In addition, rubber causes side loads in the
shock rod and will eventually damage the shaft.
Plastic or Delrin eliminates the "rubber/trampoline" effect, but it
introduces new friction that interferes with the operation of the
shocks. Forces are forces and the friction involved in a Delrin/plastic
mounting system introduces "Hysteresis" losses that interfere with your
shock operation.
One more added benefit that you do not see on other adjustable
shocks, is our remote for the rear shock adjuster. There is a slight gap
at the upper shock mount in the rear that the cable can fit through so
you do not have to drill any holes to get to the adjusters!
Fits all C5 and C6 models.
