Least expensive coil overs available

[88MONTESS]

Been reading around and may try these out. I will add a install and review as well if I go this way.
The 350 pound springs they come with concern me though. I’m thinking 400-450 would likely be more appropriate.

Car is a LS swapped 84 regal. No heat or AC . 350 lb springs may be enough...

All opinions are welcome

I thought QA1s were the cheapest, and they're double that with mixed reviews.

Looking forward to your results

Not sure if coil overs require the same stiffness as traditional springs but 350lbs is about equivalent to what standard NON F41 springs were in G body's.

I mean, typically the least expensive coilovers regardless of car completely suck. These cars rattle and bang enough as is. Let us know how it turns out.

If the pic is the actual shock, the lower mount is completely different

Yeah, those won't work for multiple reasons. Buy cheap, that's what you get. Buy once, cry once. Get RideTech if you want it to handle.

What’ makes you say they won’t work? Once the t bar is in they look to be pretty similar?

Are your LCAs reinforced for coilovers? The entire weight of the front end resting on 4 bolts would make me uneasy.

x2.
That portion of a factory lower a-arm is only meant to support the load of a shock. The arm supports the springs load because it's distributed farther out/around the arm.

Nothing like jeopardizing your safety to save a few bucks, eh?

Coil overs are completely unnecessary. You are better off with better arms, springs, shocks, and sway bar.
