double coilovers
FEELING STUPID!!!!! i have seen NUMEROUS pictures and even articles on people that stacked 2 coilovers on top of eachother.. I have been searching for days and cannot find any information on how they are connecting the two together.. hopefully you understand what im saying but if not think of it like this instead of one 14" 150# coilover per corner i want to put a 14" and a 12" together to make it basically one 26"... What i am wondering is what hardware is needed to connect them and where i can get it.. and if someone has access to a rig setup like i am talking about i would love a good close up picture of the connecting point.
Thanks and sorry i searched for hours before i asked im just burnt out of searching.

they run the same set up on trophy trucks, but idk if it's two. I'm pretty sure it's one long one like big crab said

I know it's somewhat common to use 2 springs on the same shock with coilovers, but that's easy....just use the same diameter spring and stack 'em up.

Awesome. They should ride really well and give great flex once you get the shock valving and the spring rates down. You'll probably have to go through the inner fender wells and into the engine bay for the coilover tower but that shouldn't be an issue.
