just wanted to say cool tribute, bro

 

@BKTribute - Thanks man

 

I have not been able to source coilovers at all either.

And the only place I've found that does lowering springs is H&R and the lowest they go is a 1.5" kit.

 

I think the best you can do without fully custom coilovers is springs with Koni shocks/struts
I have Koni shocks out back and they clean up handling really nicely (as you'd expect from Koni). Plus they're adjustable if you want to firm things up.
I'd imagine if you really wanted to dump your Tribute to the weeds with a hellaflush stance you'd need custom axles to compensate for the new suspension geometry as well.
That being said, this is America, if you're willing to throw down enough money you can make it happen!

Yeah.. i think it doesn't exist till lets say custom built? :horse:

What i got installed are the Japan-made ESPELIR ASD's (Active Super Down) pretty good on the track and on the street.

But i want a lil' more adjustability especially on the damping. I guess the only option for me now is to try out Koni's since my bilsteins are pretty used up on the track anyways. P

 

I'm also looking for coilovers also. what type of coilovers are best for our cars?

 

Guys, just found out that those set of coilovers do exist!

XYZ Coilovers produces coilovers for the Ford Escape/Mazda Tribute. Time to save up

 

Dynamics Engineering also makes coilovers for the 2004 Mazda Tribute. :thumb:
BTW: The XYZ company stopped producing coilovers for it.
