I need to look at what's on the top end. On the bottom a coilover could be made to work very easily, the spring has a bracket that runs to a mount with a bolt through it. Aaaaand the bushings are shot there on both sides. What's the shortest you do?

Shortest in stock is 10" but we can get whatever you want.

I bet it's more like 5" travel. Might be an idea worth kicking around just for giggle factor. Would have to figure out spring rate too.

It's all gotta come out to do shocks, they're in the spring. Would be nice to find the replacement bushings or do SOMETHING CRAZY ;D

needs some 3/4"-ish spacers in back to even out the stance. Anyone have any sitting?

think I'm gonna trim the front flares to fit the 215s.
