laz Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 me too. I've got a collection of spare nuts and bolts to show for it. I always though they were extra parts not longer needed after upgrades!

isuace Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share Posted October 30, 2007 front and rear springs get mixed? Have you ever seen the springs off of the car? :lol::lol: I would be super talented if I could get the front springs to fit on the rear struts :spin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenonk Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 O M G... put the wrench down and back away from the car... is it just me or did anyone notice that the spring perch was NOT sitting on top of the snap ring??? what was holding up the spring perch up if the snap ring was set to the LOWER position?!!!!

Guest Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 It is just you. It's reflection in the shiny finish of the perch. The perch was sitting on the snap ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhBe1 Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Nuts. I was hoping for the OB version as an explanation....

isuace Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share Posted October 30, 2007 No, there is only one ring. I don't know wtf Xenonk is talking about. The instructions that came with the Koni's were pretty much worthless. Being a suspension novice I took a guess at which way the perches went on, and I guessed wrong. I pulled them off and flipped them over, no harm no foul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isuace Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share Posted October 30, 2007 I was thinking about doing a walkthrough on lifting the front, back halfing it, and adding tube fenders.....but the girlfriend talked me out of it. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isuace Posted November 1, 2007 Author Share Posted November 1, 2007 Much better. My front right stock strut was puking fluid when I pulled it out. The front end was bouncing like sweet old Caprice going through our beautiful Co Springs streets. Now it's stiffer....in a good way, more controlled but not harsh. I still need to dial in the settings a bit I think, but Im happy so far. PS See what happens when you cancel our install meets :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praedet Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Yeah, sorry about that The ride sounds good. We will have to get all the modified suspension folks at one place in CO so we can do test drives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
