Try shoving a 7mm hex in there.
Or put the 6 mm in there and force it to one particular point of the hex and then just try to spin the nut.

Otherwise buy a nut buster and crack the nut.

 

so i still havent put them on but i will try and do this on saturday

 

I think one of my struts is foobar'd so I may be ordering a set of these soon.

 

you pay for those??

sorry i just had to

 

installed mine last night. worked a 14 hour shift today so ill be posting some pics tomorrow!!!

im on stocks now so i brought them to about 5 threads left in front and 10 in the rear

 

Okay guys, I just went through over 80 pages! I did not find my answer!

Ive been watching this thread for awhile now....


How is the ride quality? From reading all these pages, Im assuming the ride gets harsher as you go lower. Harsh as in hard-rebound, not bouncy.

Anyone coming from TRD on OEM shocks to Raceland coilovers can chime in? I would like to know how well these ride.

 

Better than s techs with stock struts and shocks I'll tell you that

 

Well I actually ended up getting these installed. Just took some good strategy to get that end link nut out. I got it tho and I love em! Just went for a twenty minute cruise on all my favorite roads. I'm very impressed ride quality is excellent for how low I am. Great product!

 

Is it bumpy? Rough? Bouncy? Im assuming you feel dips and bumps?


What setup did you have before?

 

I had the stock struts with TRD springs. I'll take the dropped Raceland ride over my TRD setup any day! Of course the rides bouncy but in a good way. When it bounces it's very stiff and just feels very precise. I'm way more confident in the corners with these coilovers as well. I have 6 threads left in the rear and 4 left in the front. It's 2am here and I have to work at 7am if it doesn't rain. I'll have a 60 mile trip to test them out even more I'll report back after then.

 

thats was a good news scionsnowman! this statement of yours "When it bounces it's very stiff and just feels very precise" thats the answer ive been looking for..

i thought that others says bouncy meaning when it bounce, it bounces up and down for a few sec and settle..

 

i got my tracking number yesterday.. hoping to recieve this bad boys in a couple of days.. and then instal them right away.. will post some pics deffinitely..

 

dude 80 pages ago i know at least 4 of us said they werent bouncy, just stiff.

 

aww man im mad now, i ordered these, and im currently dropped on s-techs, 2.4" front 2.0 in the back, i just talked to raceland, and they told me the max drop is only 2.5" i was hopeing it was atleast 3" well hopefully they put me where i wanna be..ill post a pic up of the s-tech drop with my wheels

 

they def go lower than they say im pretty sure. i think it is closer to a 3" drop

 

for real:
stechs:


racelands almost maxed out.


i'd say they can go just shy of an inch lower than s-techs.

 

looks real nice. however without the spoiler it will look even nicer.

 

gah i want rota grids so bad lol

 

So do I!

 

i cant believe these coils are only 240 bucks from raceland themselves... thats so ridiculous lol ..
