Last night at 2am I couldn't sleep so I went out to my garage and since I had my car on the lift I had a idea. I have a GT350 track pack and I also have a set of GT350R front and rear springs as some of you know. I've been so busy at work that I haven't had any time to work on my car but soon I will because the weather is gonna get nice soon and I want to enjoy it. Anyhow while laying in bed I had a though of doing this.
The R springs are supposed to lower the car 1/2". Some have stated it will or may change the mg perimeter. My idea is this. On the ride height / suspension travel sensors their is a link arm. My idea is to measure this angle as stock with the stock springs and stock wheels and ride height. Then note that angle, then after the R springs and my 305/30 FORGELINE-Michelin psc2 adjust back to that same stock noted angle. This could be done in 4 ways.
1) make a new lower control arm bracket that lowers the links attachment point for the sensor and restores the angle. Pain
2) make a new upper bracket that restores the sensors stock angle. Pain
3) slot the two holes on the bracket that holds the sensor, this can give adjustment to rotate the link arm to restore the angle.
4) and in my opinion the easiest, an adjustable link rod. It's just a ball stud on each end that can be bought and use some stainless steel all thread. These sensors pretty much do the same as the old air ride height sensors.
Restore this angle after lowering car.
