rear coil overs

Anyone converted their rear suspension to coil overs? Got any details or pics to share? I'm going to a full track setup.

Thanks!

I have. Not sure what info you're looking for, but I pulled the torsion bars out and installed Leda coilovers. Replaced the spring plate bushings w/ Racer's Edge delrin, and used the RE lower shock mounts.

All positive. They are easily adjustable, 24 positions. You can adjust ride height and corner balance super easily. Changing spring rates is easy. I've got two seasons on them and they are good as new. Overall I am very pleased with them.
