I couldn't get the raceland one to tighten down because the shaft kept spinning. I heard someone saying the factory nut is actually stronger too. Not sure about that. But the main reason is that I could only get the RL one on the very top because the polyurethane or w/e was injected at the top of the nut wouldn't allow me to go any further. Someone also said there is a section to grab on with a wrench to tighten it down. I didn't see it but I'll have to look into it if I get the chance.

 

ya there's a spot to grab onto under the threads. i did the same thing when i installed mine and later that day when i was lookin stuff over i tightened them

 

i belive its nylon thats at the top of the nut. you should use that nut because its a locking nut, idk about the factory nut being stronger but i used the nylock that it came with. I feel better having that nylock on there rather than the regular factory one. just my .02

 

That's weird Robo, check that well before you cause some damage...

x2!!!!!

 

 

just ordered mine yesterday hopefully they come in by the end of the week

 

I might take them apart. The fronts are super easy.

 

anyone still have there stock struts/shocks they wanna get rid of? with lowish miles?

 

so just the one loose one is the only issue? because i'm seriously debating this instead of replacing my struts.

 

just ordered mine aswell should be here monday

 

ariese how many miles are on your stock struts/shock? you wanna get rid of them?

 

40k but the springs are tanabe df210 and stock struts..... interested?

 

i really only wanted the struts/shocks are they blown or anything?

 

im calling Raceland tomorrow and getting a new front strut...tired of this.

 

nope i can trade you just the struts/shocks if thats all you want

im just going racelands cause i wanna go lower.

 

PM me bro lets make this happen

 

What's wrong?


GQQSE13, you should be good to go. My loose nut is my error. A lot of people had the same problem. I just never saw the spot to be able to tighten it more. The rear was easier because it had the top of the threads where you could clamp down with a crescent wrench.

 

Lesson for today:

TIGHTEN EVERYTHING up to spec!!!!!

 

so just to let you guys know. the bumpstops in the rear arent big enough. I now have 2 holes in my cars body (in the trunk) from impact with either my camber arms or my wheels. i havent been able to look yet.

 

SCIONANDEW LOOOOVE the pic bro, im getting the same wheels but in gold haha! good ol drag dr-21!!
