go looking thru moog... cargo coil and say mk1 rabbit.. i had them on my 1st car thru high school.. they what you seek..mk1 bunny-jetta-cabby all same.. caddy rear only different..
-
CAbby is supposed to be a higher load rated spring like GTI and GLI MK1. That is the only differences I know of besides caddy.
-
So I will look for a Cabby spring then? Alrightty
-
thought the CADDY used leaf springs in the back?!
-
turn that frown upside down...and the d to a b won't hurt either :D
-
???
-
caBBY or
CaDDY
-
he missed my op on rabbit-jetta-cabby same caddy different..

Riiight, and then there was mention of cabby being stronger
-
they say they are.. but they were gti ish in stioffness.. the added weight of convert is reason.. but they are so much stiffer then sedan due tp reinforcements a stronger spring/sway bars can hurt cornering..
you need to find some cargo coils.. old used.. old stock.. hell made by moog.. got to have some somewhere..
your wet dream is a "nevomat" made by boge in the 80s... self leveling rear shocks for a mk1... nice ride.. and level once you start to drive... sadly they fail and creep to ground over night.. then till you drive do not pump back up.. and nla = life warentee = usless which is why i never had a set.. but was real real close back in 90ish.. knew of 2 sets needing warentee..
-
Im just gonna go back to stock ride height.. haha I had less issues there.
Being lowered is not cool at all.
-
LOW sucks, and as stated was just mentioning the fact that the Cabby, GTI and GLI's had stiffer springs. If you want a slight raise use MK2 rear shocks and springs.
-
The moog variable rate coils on Rockauto are indeed the cargo coils. I should know, I have them on my cabriolet.
-
low as in??

with the adj koni im very happy with my "low" and parking it beside another one really shows how low..

mine parked further back on slope vs other 2..
-
Had my low for 6 years. Low looks good but bad roads and old age have made me appreciate stock height.
-
?..
I'm confused by this thread. Is someone looking for Moog Cargo Coils?

8v has thread on poortex abt needing better rear springs... weight he carries and such... im banned there.. so instead of best nswere there.. i gotta post them here for him..
ive had them... 4 people commin in high school in my ride.. trunk full of root beer and such... they what he seeks.. they ride good as long as not empty.. and they work..
others say mk2 rears and crap... why not do it right.. they exist.. old stock im sure..
yes mk2 fit mk3 also... and again.. 10,000 rounds of ammo in trunk no issue...
-
I have h&r cabby springs on my rabbit they are some type of sport spring. Ride is good but not luxurious handling is awesome
-
I got some of those inch thick coil boosters??
They worked pretty damn well. They must have jumped the spring rate up significantly because it does not bottom nearly as easily now and has a much stiffer ride back there.
Yeah, your thinking it.. so I will say it. I am cheap as hell. HAHA

:o Joo ;D

$0.99 hockey pucks?

$8 coil boosters. I am not THAT cheap lol.
Those hockey puck style ones were for bigger coil springs like on the old pickups. EVERY 80's 90's GM had a sagging front end lol..
