and the handling is pretty good for being dumped

install is easier than springs. just exchange the upper mounts on your existing dampers and slap em back on. adjust ride height. done

Whaaaaaaat?! LOL.

Are you talking about the thread I posted about when my car starts to shake?

If so it happens when I'm at a complete stop also, HAHA.

I don't know what is going on!

Ktothesass, I'm confused.

How come I don't see anyone in the drivers seat?

Or is the camera playing tricks on me?

i have mine preset so that when I install them they should be even. otherwise, measure from the fender to the middle of the wheel and try to make all wheels even?

Bro I tried that and then when I move the car and park it somewhere else it either looks higher or lower or one side is off. My drive way is uneven.

you have the same amount of thread left on each coilover? Because when i lowered my fronts i noticed my passenger side needed to be put lower than the driver side for them to be even..
