Hi, all having fun with a IRS setup at the moment wondering if its ok to have the coil over angled towards the front?

If no good I can move back and use the same bolt as the hub carrier?

Thanks

Should make v.little difference having the shock angled forward, I played around with mine in all sorts of positions!!! b4 settling on where they are now

It will be closer to the top wishbone then in the pic, I just wanted to show the angle of the coil over will be central from the bottom wishbone up.

And if it makes little different to the set-up that makes tomorrows job list a little shorter (not really)

I did the same thing, but used spherical bearings on my dampers instead of bushes. I think, over time, your bushes will give way because of the angle.

The hot-rod guys used to make the top mounts adjustable as a simple means of altering spring rates.

The more upright the more direct the spring rate. Adding some incline to the spring reduces the effective rate of it so giving a softer ride.

Not sure how much difference your slight incline would make though!!
