- The drift vette gets some suspension work. We delete the transverse leaf springs and go with full coilovers instead. One step closer to being a full blown drift car!

Let me know what you thought of this video!
As a person who turns a wrench for a living, i saw that torque bar being used to loosen. hurt to watch
Im glad Im not the only one.
Zachary Brown I don't turn a wrench for a living but I was like. Ohhh nooo.. what are you doinn!
Whats wrong with using a torque bar, its saves time? I dont turn a wrench for living, thats why im asking
Tjalle meister it can knock it out of adjustment
or they way he hit that tie rod end out
It's like an LS swapped 240 with out the 240 now
yo chase love your vids man, keep up the great work 😉.
Hey Thanks dude!
LMAO
Hey Chase, thanks to ya boi Zack here, you gained another sub, hahaha.
I'm just starting my own car channel. Mostly repairs for now. Projects and turbo noises coming this spring. :)
Chase Hoffman, It doesn't need the 240. 😎👍🏻
Killer editing, you're just getting better and better. One of my favourite youtubers now, i don't think it'll be long before you blow up.
aaaanndddd 2 years later - he did
lol in the warehouse, just walk over and get a new box Like A BOSS!
Fire thumbnail
editing is dope AF. like if u agree
Corona 81 better then the cheesy TJ hunt editing
You should LS swap it.
ChrissV 🤦🏻♂️ it's a Corvette, it has an LS.
ChrissV what did I just read😂😂😂
ChrissV bruhhhhhhhhh is this a for reals comment
level 9999 obliviousness in zach's comment.
Yea definetly a 5.7 ls1 not the 5.3 or 4.8 ls1. 😂 For reals the best comment because everyone says ls swap it
Does no one use pb blaster the shit works amazing on stuck bolts trust me i have a rusty truck from mass i would break all the bolts without that shit
Micheal Caboose I've never noticed a difference when using it tbh.
Shoutout to the cat.
RIP torque wrench
Why were you using a torque wrench to loosen things. That just makes it accuraccy go off.
THUG LIFE
gurbeer athwal It looked like a normal socket wrench with a pipe slipped over the handle
gurbeer athwal Oh, never mind he did use a torque wrench as a ratchet at the beginning
Harbor freight TQ wrench is never accurate anyways lol
yes please do a video on how to get jobs at places like that
is there anyway you could get a disscount code for BC coils ?
I can already tell the wait was worth it
*Has corvette for three weeks* Still installs more mods that make sense than TJ puts on his cars
hit what the tie rod end goes through! hitting the nut can still damage the threads
Man, production quality on point!! keep this up and the other cartubers wont have anything compared to you!
the production quality on this video is on another level. Can see the effort you put into this one Taylor. Good work
mannnnn... do you guys make coil overs for a 98 volvo v70 wagon?? I want to lower it so bad it's such a sleeper. it's the 5 speed turbo wagon but I have some ideas for it starting with coilovers.
+Anthony Pacheco we do! Coworker has one.
On that note, also for a volvo, do you make them for a volvo 740?
I have seen em at bcracing site... also You just need new front hubs.
Oh really? Haha I couldn't find any before but I'll check again! Thanks :D

Loved the filming in this! Need some new music though :)
Taylor this was a really awesome and well put together video! I cant wait to watch your content quality grow as your channel does! keep up the awesome work!
when removing a tie rod ends, dont smash on the bolt of it ! hammer it on the side were he taper is ! it will get loose
Looks like you need brakes as well
You need to hire that guy as your full time videographer. His shots are on point
Alright Tyler Failko.
Will Thies bro get the fuck OUTTA here
using a torque wrench to lossen are you crazy ?!?! 😲
Are you undoing the bolts with a torque wrench...
Come on man, take 10 minutes and clean those tires!
bro talk with a little more energy you sound kinda dull and tired.
+Mateusz Zleczewski yeah let me just turn on my fake UA-cam personality real quick.
Taylor Ray not saying to turn on a fake personality everyone's got problems and idt you should ever hide them I'm just saying you're doing what you love on a car you like but you just don't smile or show the fun you're having that's all. I didn't mean to offend you in any way I don't know what's happening in your life behind the camera but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be able to take pleasure in what you do and have some fun.
just because he isn't smiling from ear to ear does not mean he's not enjoying himself. everyone is different my guy.
I enjoy his presentation because it isn't bullshit, it's him. Stay real :)
Nelson Santana I agree man everyone is different but universally we all show happiness in similar ways. I'm not saying Taylor needs to be fake on camera he just needs to come out of his shell a little bit. Nearly every UA-camr that starts is a little shy of filming (for good reasons obviously). Usually it takes time for UA-camrs to fully come out of their shell and be who they really are in front of the camera. You can see this trend with the early videos of many UA-camrs. Go look at Taylor's buddy Adam LZ when he just started or haggard garage or mighty car mods. Those are probably some of the realest UA-camrs on the website right now they don't bullshit they don't fuck around they tell you how it is yet they still are happy and seem uplifted. Taylor has just started filming whether he seems a little fatigued in his videos from working his job or other issues is completely acceptable and understandable. My point however is that he just started filming and he's a new UA-camr so of course he's a little camera shy I'm just suggesting that he puts some energy into it and breaks out of his shell. Look at how he acts in Adams videos he's a smiley happy kind of guy and I think that attitude would really go well here. He's a smart guy with a good knowledge of cars and as seen with this video he's really good at editing and filming. He puts a lot of work into his videos and I think he deserves more of an audience for sure he's like the Casey Neistat of car channels on UA-cam. Adding a little zest and energy into his videos would make his videos more entertaining to watch and thus he'd get the following he deserves.
Taylor working on his car in the morning? Damn... crazy.
Could you do a tour of your work. I would be interested to see where my customers BC Coilovers come from ;)
can you please do a video on how to rebuild a shock or coilover
dude I'm just curious what ryobi impact gun that is, I have ryobi power tools and want an impact gun but I think there is a couple on the market but I see you use yours for wheels nuts and suspension bolts and it looks good enough to do the job , awesome video by the way!
Boi you need some new wheels ASAP
Now I want BC Racing coilovers and I don't even have a car...yet. Saving up for an E30 wagon
Ayrton Bondzanga good luck finding one in good condition and cheap.
Ayrton Bondzanga yea 10k plus for a boring ass e30 wagon
haha like 1-2k in germany
Bonified thank you
Bob Sagit actually 0.5k - 3k and if it was really that boring I wouldn't be saving up for one
Taylor, don't use a torque wrench as a regular ratchet (or a breaker bar) if you have a choice, that shit will wear out lickety split. keep up the great work.
are these available yet? I'd love to put some on my C5 Z06
Bend your knees properly when lifting boxes Taylor, thinking of your back dude, buckets seats are hard enough on the back
yess please make a video on how to get a job in the aftermarket industry.
that color looks good man just need some black rims
Thanks man!
Tyler be like
"You ain't even low"
Hey taylor are you going to paint the vette or keeping it like this?
Abyss Saint Sticker bomb.
where can i get that flux capacitor shirt at!?
Just ordered the BC racing Br series coilovers for my Volvo s60, looking forward to installing them.
NICE!!! Didn't know the BC racing setup converted the rear leafs to IRS!! BADASS
Nice set up Can we get exact measurements. How far is the front rear sitting. Can you measure the bottom of the fender to the ground. I’m at Front 26.25 (tire 275/35/18) Rear 26.75 (tire 285/35/19). Thanks
The BC BR, HSD MonoPro, etc, those setups are slightly out of my price range. Currently looking at HSD Dualtechs because the design makes them slighty cheaper, but they still have plenty of adjustablility. Does BC make a comparable product or does the range start with the BR and go upwards from there? Love the videos pal, always look forwards to them when I get in from work!
Yo this vid is sooooooooooooooo professional!!!! I'm hype Taylor!!! It looks like a clearer camera, better filming, and professional editing‼️‼️‼️ love it!!
Nice music. Seeing this car makes me wish i wouldn't have sold my C5 Z06. If i don't sell my Nissan GTIR i plan on getting BC Racing coilovers for it. Cool you work there.
Seeing how easy every bolt comes out, makes me wanna move south...
Taylor love the vids man. Always had a love affair with the C5... especially the Z06 but that woulda been a waste of money with what you have planned for this car. Anyway.. keep up the good work and I'll be right here watching daily.
Hi Taylor, I know this is a super old video but can you add universal bags to those BC's on the C5? I want air ride on my C5 and saw that airtek sells universal bags that go on BC's. Not sure if you know anything about those. Any help is appreciated.
Word! I just picked up a 92 325is e36, Its got BC Coils. 1st drift is next sunday 12th ;) Oh and because i bought the car i might not be in ATL again, Which sucks.. Wanted to come say hi again.
BCs are great, I have them on my e30. How does your replacement warranty work though? My threats are mutilated on one of my fronts. How would I get that replaced? Thanks, love the videos
You should ls swap it!!!!
since BC racing is so awesome to you... I think I'm going to switch form XYZ coilovers to be BC coilovers. I love the quality of the XYZ components but whenever I try to talk to them they're horrible on the phone I spent a year trying to get replacement parts ended up going with a different company that had the same specs as what I needed four replacement parts. I love the fact that they're okay with you and your videos they allowed you to work in their shop and even helped you.... that's priceless.
Yo man, what coilovers series/spring rate would recommend for a e36 touring with 1uzfe conversion?? We are in the process of building one suspension is next on the list, will be paired up with wisefab. You know of the best uk suppliers also?
Hey Taylor I have a set of bc coils for my 2008 Scion tC non extreme low. I was wondering if you have any tips on picking a new spring rate. I use my car for auto crosse hope to hear back! and I also enjoy all your videos!
+Taylor Ray dude outstanding job on the editing this video it looks super good I can see why you're a week behind on Videos. as long as these videos are as good as this one I think you have nothing to worry about. Also towards the middle of the video when you were installing the coilovers you asked us to remind you to never put coilovers in your car again but it looks like you might have to do that so just reminding you LOL. I've been looking into coils for my wrx, how much do BCs run? And lastly I think you should do a day in the life of you video your co-workers seem super cool and you said there cool with you videoing. Anyway man, keep up the good editing! This one turned out great! We could tell it took at least a day to edit!
GM's rear leaf springs.. a sin one could forgive for cost cutting. But the GM bolt design in rear looked like pain in the ass to work on. Usually coil over replacements for cars might be 2-4 hr job.
Will the new kit that y'all are developing have a shorter shock in the rear? I'm currently running Ridetech coilovers and for the rear we had to modify the upper mounting plate (adapter to go from a standard shock mount to the corvette mount) to get the rear low enough and I'm running negative preload on the springs for the front and rear. It all works but I do bottom out the rear sometimes. Also look into a delrin control arm bushing kit. Ridetech makes one and probably a few other companies. C5's have a lot of deflection in the stock bushings and with the mileage that your car has it will make a huge difference. On mine it was a night and day difference. Love the C5 videos! Can't wait to see it at a drift event!
Thanks for the video. A couple things. You need better lighting. And you really need to skip the soothing music and take the time to explain your steps more in depth. It was kindof like the old tv commercial where you pop the dish to be cooked in and, with the magic of television, here is the finished product. 😊👌🏼
Taylor,
I feel like most of your shots look really good. However, the glamour shots might benefit from a cheap slider of some sort (you can get ones for less than $100 on Amazon). Also, maybe try to make the transition to the full end a bit smoother. This time around it was a little bit abrupt.
hey im planning to get coilovers for my 1990 corvette (c4)...would these fit on that modle as well? im pretty new to this so just wana make sure before i buy
Props to putting all that work in, looks like a real PITA
Awesome video Taylor! Question, do you know if the BR series coilovers for an MK3 Focus ST (12-Current) will work on a Focus SE?
hey can you provide a website or link for these coilovers? I have a 2003 z06 that I've been drifting at the local track and I'm in the market for a good set of coilovers.

yo! i was wondering since you took the leaf springs would that affect an type of alignment issues. ive had a few mini trucks and removing mine would have caused dog tracking so wondered if you had any problems??
great vid! love your stuff B
Nice shout out at the end. They really are doing you a huge favor (not for nothing, but nonetheless).
Got me subbed, definitely work with that filmer as much as possible.
You should slam that boat trailer on some BC Gold coilovers
that golf mk3 in the background is nice!
The Hispanic cast is the best. Pedro had me cracking up. By the way Pedro called himself an ass eater and Taylor the homosexual from the beach.
I know you won't be able to respond Taylor it would be hella dope though, but do cars in Florida rust that much?? and ifso what causes it, because up north we have salt during the winter but you guys don't have winters :P
Man thought my Mazda 3 was a Pain in da ass to work on...lol...This looks more of a pain!...Lucky you have lift and tool access!
Should have changed the control arm bushings while you were in there man. More predictable handling would-be worth it. LBS.
This video was fucking LIT!! As a car guy I loved it Taylor keep on pushing the vette's gonna be dope!!!
Bro the quality of this vid is crazy! Music is so chill and the glamour shots are great. Only thing I'd say is to find a better balance between your voice and the music. Music comes of a little loud in comparison to your voice so I shift volume a lot. But this video is insane man! I love it!
Not sure if I'll get a response butttt... planning on getting coilovers for the soul purpose of reducing weight and being able to control weight transfer for drag racing... would you say this helps with avoiding wheelhop?
What's the difference between the Bcracing black springs and upgrading to swift springs?
Really want to see a video explaining more on your job and getting into the after market parts industry.
Also I'm curious where you get the music that you use in your videos. I love it!
After watching your video the other day about how you didn't want to rush this video, all I can say is good job man. Came out very very well.
Never knew those cars had leaf spring set ups either
You failed the 15 minute coilover challenge
When you get bigger wheels/tires it'll fill that gap lol
using the torque wrench haha love the production quality of this film! very professional picture quality
those first segunds, dam taylor sick
Did you upgrade any other suspension parts to correct camber/toe or did the OEM suspension parts have enough adjustment to correct the camber/toe?
These videos just increased the prices for the old vettes.
Hey Taylor, who is best to talk to at bc in regards to setting up coil overs for older euro's ? in need of a setup for the e34 525i im cleaning up. cheers
Taylor, you seemed a little bummed that your behind with you editing, but I would've waited a month to watch this video. It was so slick, you killed it!
Surprised no one has asked this but do you have a code customers can use during their checkout? I know a lot of vloggers do. Just asking. Thanks
Does BC make coilovers for a volvo v70 in the -08 range? I'm thinking of buying one when i end school and have a job!
You should remove that front plastic splitter. It'll look way better without it and you're going to have way more clearance
Just putting it out there over the few pages I watch you hands down have better sound tracks Adams getting there but y'all kill haggard garage and rodknock rudneck keep it real taylor
Taylor are you using a mic on your camera? You really need a mic for vocals, the current mic peaks out alot makes listening to you talk a little harsh. keep up the good work tho. :)
damn you guys must have it nice down in florida here in MA i have cars coming in with 30k miles and im torching everything out !!!!
Speaking of testing shock lengths etc,my 180sx are as low as they can go on 17" wheels and still could be lower
i wold definitely go for beefier rotors and calipers, while the rotors themselves are large, they have minimal contact patch with the caliper and pads, just my 2 cents
Taylor, Loving the videos bro.
Quick question, ive had a set of br's in my mirage for over a year and the whole time the rear left has had i slight knock, it hasnt gotten any worst, although it does get louder as i increase the stiffness, does that seem like an issue to you? again love the videos bro
Since you deal with coilovers everyday you should do a "how to setup your coils " do a set that has an external coil like 370z . @taylorRay
