coilover sleeves

PostPost by: bengalcharlie » Tue Apr 27, 2010 11:47 pm

Hi,

Can anyone point me in the right direction where to buy some coilover sleeves from in the USA?
I bought some AQ1 jam nuts and top springs mounts for my 2.5 inch ID AQ1 springs from summit racing. Unfortunately their website does not give any dimensions so it is impossible to choose from their range of sleeves. if anyone can point me in the right direction it will be appreciated.
I did buy some sleeves through ebay and although the ID of inches is correct the OD of 2.350 is probably to thick. anyway the jam nuts I bought do not fit.
tha jam nuts have an ID of 2 1/8 inch. so probably looking for a sleeve with an ID of 2 inches and a OD of 2 3/16??? Not so familiar with inches so if someone could confirm that this is correct I would really appreciate it.
In hind sight it would have been easier to go to one of the lotus suppliers but I did not want to spend the money :roll: must be my good dutch heritage !!!
cheers

You may want to talk to Col Croucher at Elantrikbits.com.au. He made the rear coilover spring kit for my Elan and like everything he does superb quality and reasonable price. He does not list the kit currently on his web site but he may be able to help you out with the parts you need.
