I have hurd this a few times and I dont know what they are or where to get them.

I think they stiffen up the rear springs.

Will it help my launch?

thanks guys and sorry if their is already somthing on this I could not find it

 

Walmart has them. They're in the sporting goods section.

 

 

just don't pump them up too much mine popped on the first bump haha

 

Which ones?The 4 dollar rubber jobbers?

 

why? its a FWD.

 

^^^^^Are you serious?
Its to keep the weight from shifting to the back of the car when launching and keep it up front, aka traction.

 

this thread is making me lol

 

shifting weight? i mean my foxbody mustang i used the eibach springs with their air bag for weight shifting. but FWD???? just use stiffer springs.

 

Footballs is a more simple way than to swap springs all the time

 

Why when I can have my nice factory ride and when I need to stiffen them throw some footballs in the springs.

If I wanted stiffer springs all the time, it would be Pedders, at least they are proven to actually improve performance.

 

until someone in here cuts something better than a 1.88 on a dr, then stop hating on the footballs. it works. its a great option for those who cant afford coilovers yet

 

do you have a pic of this?

 

Do you literally take off the rear tires slide a deflated football inside each coil and then inflate it?

 

or Jack the car up so the coils spread apart then slide the footballs in that's how I did it

 

yes, but i dont feel like looking for it. football in rear spring, not difficult

this

 

thanks guys I will try a before and after to see if it really helps

 

That is all.

 

what brand of football do you use? just a cheapie? what psi do you inflte it to?

 

I need more details on which football too

 

I got the 15-20 dollar leather Wilson footballs. I think the junior size

 

okay, i guess. but irather stick with my coilover setup.

 

Well no kidding, I don't recall anyone saying to use footballs over a coil over set up.

 

thats what i thought to

 

$20.00 leather wilson junior football. got it. now, inflate to what psi??
