I will be fitting coil-overs to my Gold soon-ish, I have been looking at various styles, manufacturers, suppliers etc, I have noticed that coil-overs with a bush or bearing mount at both ends are much more commonplace and cheaper (as opposed to bush and rod type arrangement usually used on Midas'). Bearing this in mind and excusing the crude drawing has anybody tried to make a top mount to allow fitment of a double bushed coil-over.
PRO's
>It would spread the load over its entire area which would be a larger area than the rubber bush on a standard coilover.
>The M12 rod could be as long as required to compensate for the fibreglass thickness.
>Rubber bushes could still be used but would be much larger, therefore spreading the load.
CON's
>Not sure of any
