I am doing a Leaf to coil conversion to the rear of my patrol What do you guys think is the best way about going at it. It gets used for play not work so load is not an issue and a coil over requires less fab work fo my chassis. let me no what you think and why
Cheers

There is a better chance you will get it through transport, if that is what you are looking for?

If funds allow go coilovers because they are infinately adjustable in ride height spring rate & dampening. If you are gonna spend a weekend cutting & welding you might as well take the coilover option because there would be stuff all extra work in it.

Nothing wrong with the std option though. weld it nice paint it black and noone will ever know. wouldnt bother about engineer cert going std so will save $$ there. I bet cops & rta would never pick it up in a million years.
