cbuzz Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Hi Guys, I am looking for a 2.5" cone shaped spring hat for the front suspension of my Spec car. I bought Wrightwood racing camber plates that have about a 1.15" taller height than flat camber plates. Unfortunately WR does not make the spring hat for this shock. I am using the Bilstien spec shock. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Contact me at 805-286-1732 or cb at fibertools dot com If you have any info to share. Charlie Buzzetti Quote
Cory M Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Tarett has a few options in their 911 section but they are all for 2.25" springs (www.tarett.com). They could probably be modified if you can't find anything else. You could call Jay at Ground Control and see what they have, I'm sure they'd rather you buy their plates but they make a lot of parts for other makes too and might have something on the shelf that is compatible. Good luck! Quote
cbuzz Posted August 19, 2009 Author Posted August 19, 2009 Thanks Cory I will check with Ground Control. Can't use 2.25 springs because I have the Boge lower strut housing (won't fit). Thanks again, Quote
aben8057 Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Charlie, QA1 has 2.5 cone shaped hats with a steep angle that may interest you. http://qa1.thomasnet.com/item/motorsports-street-rods-accessories/spring-cap/9018-113?&plpver=1001&bc=1001|1005|1031|3001049&forward=1 Quote
cbuzz Posted August 22, 2009 Author Posted August 22, 2009 Thanks Alex, I sent them a request for more info. Quote
cbuzz Posted August 28, 2009 Author Posted August 28, 2009 Hey Alex, I ended up buying the QA1 spring hats. They work fine for the Bilsteins (with custom spacer) but do not think they will work with Koni's (shaft too small). Thanks for the tip. The really amazing part is that they are only $16.50 each. Not sure how they do it. Quote
