Gloyale Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Just thouught it was better than buying honda springs and these older cars can be droopy in the bum It was an okay idea, but leaves no travel. Probably would blow the tube off the perch/notches. Honda springs stiffer it up, but leave some travel still. Don't be affraid to cut a bit of coil if they are a tad stiff at first. Maybe 1/2 coil? 3/4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apintonut Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) Need help, need to know the distance between the the struts from center of struts to center of strut asap. P.s. its on a loyal or dl I had it written down and lost it. Edited February 16, 2014 by apintonut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81EA81 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) My EA82 FSM just isnt as good as the EA81.The EA81 FSM has that info. But based off a quick measurement of my "86 GL EA82 from center strut nut to center strut nut straight across is about 40 1/4"inches. Hope this helps!

apintonut Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 Isnt gl narrower than dl/loyal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81EA81 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) EA81 GL yes, by about 3" The EA82 GL should be the same as any other EA82 Loyale or DL. Loyale body style was still called GL from 1985-89 Feel free to wait for others input, But I feel this is a solid fact.

apintonut Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 Sweet i went ahead and ran with it and it saved my butt from making a mistake That and im trying to squeeze a back seat in there so i moved the running gear forward a lil more than planed. So most likely never going to wheelie. :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
