LG Motorsports New Adjustable Coil Over package $1895.
Guys,
Here are the drawings of our new Adjustable Coil over shocks for just $1895 complete
There is no reason to buy any other single adjustable shock again. there is no other coil over single adjustable built this good with NO COMPROMISES
Engineered in house by LG Motorsports, Track tested by Me. TO Find any better, you will have to spend twice the money.
The aluminum parts will be Anodized Red. Bearings top and bottom with forks on the lower rear.
We made the valving right in the middle of our Bilstein shock setting, so you can dial up or down from there.
Pricing will be $1895. Red anodized Aluminum with spherical bearing front shocks top and bottom. >>>No rubber and no plastic rubbing blocks<<<<
The rear shocks have a spherical bearing mounted horizontal ANd the typical fork mount at the lower shock point.
WHEN We build something WE BUILD THE BEST. We don't make compromises and we don't expect YOU to test the flaws in the product like some. AND now we are building the best product at the best price no question.
The front adjusters are on the shaft below the bearing and the rear adjuster is on the top of the shaft with an adjuster extension so you can pull your carpet back and give it a twist.
My personal testing has been very positive. I have not found a flaw yet. NO they are not a double or triple adjustable racing shock but they are gas filled and a really nice set up. WITH *****
The adjustment does both bump and rebound but it is a very linear adjustment.
We had them valved in the mid range of the Bilstein Coil overs that we have still available.
There is truly no better shock package at this price. These are about $500 less expensive than our Bilsteins and not much difference in the valving and feel.
In fact, we are using a softer spring and the T1 bars on this and the effect is a great handling car with no compromise in the ride quality.
Don't accept Rubber or Plastic tops on a coil over. Ignorance is Bilss and to put rubber mounts on top of a Coil over shows true lack of vehicle dynamic knowledge. THE BEST FOR SURE>
Dealer Inquires welcomed.

Took a ride In a car with these coilovers today. I gotta say, the ride is amazingly compliant yet very controlled at the same time. We went over some very rough pavement and railroad crossings without any harshness in ride quality. We also did some good hard acceleration/turning and braking runs. Color me very impressed. They seem to ride much better than the standard Z06 suspension while at the same time keeping the car much more controlled.
Nice job LG.

No longer a Bilstein, though? Just valved with the mid-point matching your Bilstein valving?
I think the fully threaded body that lets you adjust the overall shock length without messing with pre-load is slick.

we still have the Bilstein available but these allows us to offer the lower price.
I am very happy with the way they came out.

Guys,
One simple question has to be answered here.
We have a Spherical bearing set up on our shocks in all mounting locations other than the bottom of the rear shock "Fork" mount. We did this because of the precision that the bearing offers. Precise and smooth operation that does not interfere with the shock function.
The question is this. "If rubber or plastic was the best way, then why don't you see rubber or plastic on the best race cars???" (Formula 1 with Rubber?) (Indycar with Rubber??)----NOT
The answer is that the spherical bearings offer the best solution.
Rubber acts like a "Trampoline" effect that must be overcome before the shock can actually work. and the rubber also changes the spring rate momentarily until the rubber compresses. In addition, rubber causes side loads in the shock rod and will eventually damage the shaft.
Plastic or delrin does eliminate the "rubber/trampoline" effect but it then introduces new friction that interferes with the operation of the shocks.
Forces are forces and the friction involved in a delrin/plastic mounting system introduces "Hysteresis" losses that interfere with your shock operation.
What was the phrase during the election? "Lipstick on a Pig" does describe any mounting method other than a spherical bearing if you are looking for shock performance.
OH yeah, and with our shocks, the best is not an extra charge. We strive to provide the best product at the best price.
All that said, I have to say that if you already have a Penske or other bayonet mounted shock that you don't want to replace, then the best solution is the Hardbar upper mount to salvage your existing shock package. Props to Gary for that.
Thanks guys

Guys, for anyone to imply that the "ear" mount "takes up space" assums that we did not design our shocks for the ears. And on our new shock set up with the best spherical bearing set up and NO shock ears, they too were designed properly with no ears in mind.
It is very funny to hear the desperate excuses to somehow validate their lack of proper shock mounting.
LG Motorsports would never sell a coil over package that was inferior and lacking, and then try to sell the upgrade to the original purchasers. We would pass the upgrade on to you at no charge.

Why do you guys have to make everything so pretty? I would feel guilty putting these on my car cuz they look so nice. First the wing and now this??? I do trust you guys so when it comes time to buy coil overs, these are probably going to be it.
Whens the LG Signature Corvette going to be released?

Some questions:
What is the rear droop travel range on these dampers? I need something shorter than stock so my rear wheels don't hit my upper control arms.
About how much do they weigh?
What range of spring rates are they designed to work with? What spring rates do they come with?

The upper shock mount is enclosed in the rear cargo area. If you adjuster is on the top I don't see how you can reach it.
Need some pictures of them installed please.

I will try to get some photos todsy.
The remote cable makes a "U" turn so you can get at it. This is the first batch and we may have to have a longer cable. We just wanted to get it to be just in sight so you can get at it.
I will get a picture today.
