How much lift on the white coupe? It looks badass. They're all sweet

What offset are the wheels? Looks perfect

maybe you should read a bunch.........
his answer was better :-\

I'd have had someone make me adapters for the mounts in order to use EA82 shocks on the rear end instead of the longer Rancho's.
Interesting... but why?
To gain more spring for the rear?

Any pics of your setup. Anything you would have done different?I put a straight 4" lift on my '85 Brat. In conjunction I also cranked the torsion bar for a bit more rear and I also ran the front strut adjusters all the way up for additional front lift. Camber from hell, but the tires don't seem to be wearing irregularly or faster than usual. 80% highway use to 20% fishing trail offroads use for the Brat. The new project will be my kids main ride. He's 17 years old so I'm guessing it will be closer to a 50/50 split road/trails. I see a lot of people running the 4/3 lifts but just don't really understand the benefits or what exactly they are for that matter.Shorter blocks at the trans crossmember is a good idea. It doesn't hurt anything. It does angle the exaust up a little so it doesn't hang so low and look so funny.I thought that one up before I wrote the FAQ. I also came up with the idea to use an extra 1 inch block at the motor crossmember to give level out the camber. Works too.
I can have an ea81 lifted in about 4 hours in my garage. They are very easy to lift. I think I've lifted 19 ea81s.
extra inch at the motor over what the strut blocks are? Why was your camber out of wack.
I'm about to be lifting my 86 brat. I was thinking of 4 front, 3 rear.

hope someone answers, I'm about to be in the same boat

how wide are the rims? Looks really good!

Holy ************! an almost old thread with good pics that work!
thanks for bumping.

Nice!!!! I like the stance. What lift and tire size are you running? I'd like to make my 86 brat like that.

I'm looking for a new Y pipe. But I don't want a cat.
Are there any options out there for a new y pipe without cat?
I have an 86 brat, I'd also like to do away with the Air Suction Valves.
Is it true EA82 exhaust bolts up to an EA81 with the ASV removed?
