Aal2oN Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Would putting coilovers from a wagon cause the rear of a sedan to sit higher and not lower nearly as much as the fronts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Should not. Wagon is only about 60lbs heavier in the rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aal2oN Posted February 28, 2010 Author Share Posted February 28, 2010 The adjustment in the rear is as low as possible and still about 1/2 an inch from where i would really like it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 OEM springs are only 1/8" longer for wagons. You are trying to go too low or something is wrong. How much distance is there between the bump stop and arm? What is the distance from center of hub to fender well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aal2oN Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 Definitely not trying to go to low im trying to get the fenders about an inch from the from the top of the tire..nothing crazy and right now the front is perfect i just cant seem to get the back down another 1/2 inch at the most Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Did you get the set used? Is there a second spring seat installed? A shim? At 1" fender gap the rear is almost sitting on the bump stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
