    Where do you get them? Is there a part number or do they know when you tell them it's for a DeLorean?

    That price is the same as anywhere else. I would choose a vendor who you know they have them in stock and ready to ship

    I got my coilovers from here from Nick Reid:

    Wolfgang Hank is the most prominent suppler, he runs group buys/sales on them sometimes.

    Thank you for the reminder that I hadn't posted about them yet. It is the UCA's that I bought.

    I modified my lower (stock) arm mount a while ago, to better center the wheel in the wheel well. Got a lot of flack about that! Putting that aside, I did install those UCA's to bring the caster back to what it should be. Those arms a great; very well made and if you don't have enough adjustment for caster with those, you have a serious issue. I needed them moved rearward a fair bit so I machined some spacers instead of using a stack of washers.

    It is a bit of a hassle to adjust the caster since you have to remove the long arm bolt, swap washers/spacers around, put things back together, measure the caster, and repeat as required. It would be a little faster with the U-shaped spacers you can buy (don't have to remove the bolt). I've got 4 1/4 degrees one side and 4 degrees on the other. I'll tweak it a bit at some point to get it closer to 5, but it does drive very nicely now. I found that swapping one washer from front to back changes the caster by around 3/4 to 1 degree.

    I certainly do recommend these if you want/need to change your suspension settings.
