guyadawson Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Just out of curiosity, do people relocate the front dampers when converting for air to coils? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snagger Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 The dampers will put a torsional load on the front axle when moving, but that should be controlled by the radius arm bushes, so while moving the dampers inside the springs would reduce that torsion and the forces on the bushes, I can't see that it's a "must", after all, the dampers and suspension work just as hard with the air springs as with coils. There is no change at the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncmc Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Also, changing dampers is so much easier to do if they are not inside the springs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
