how the hell do people get there ae85/6's so low?

[elliot7]

Check the guys at TOKICO, they make a kit for AE86 called HTS102, its 4 short shocks, externally adjustable, and suitable for Road and Track use....of course you still need to find springs to get the height/rate you desire, but hey....at least with the Tokico, its alreadya short travel shock,,,, www.tokico.co.nz

there the money shot bro

[AE85.6]

ye the TRD ones i got thru MR Revhead were already shortened i think from memory the front ones were 97mm shorter and the rears were i think 76mm ??? these were also trd AE92 front ones, i had to do a little playing to keep the front captive but give a nice drop,

suprising that the ones in my old AE were not captive thou ay, i mean it was hardly that much lower ay, i mean they were only kings so i didnt think they would be loose with standard shox

yea bro could jack it up and almost pull the spring out in the back.

wow really ??? hmmm didnt really notice when i was swapping wheels around on it but thats the only time i had ever jacked it up ? but i assumed the shox were all poked anyways so i wouldnt have worried cause i would have swapped everything anyway, not good that they were that loose for such a small amount lowered ay

Wow, the TRD springs must be very short then! How did you 'keep' them captive? Do you have a pic of the car and how it sits now?
