Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - Wrong Front Springs KW V3's (Please Help)

Hi,

I had purchased a set of KW V3's awhile ago and just got around to installing them. After installation i took it for a test drive and was hearing a lot of clunking in the front every time I went over bumps. When i got home I decided to take a look and see if i could adjust them so that I'm not as low as i thought that might be the problem. When I took off the wheel i noticed that the spring was free floating, there was a lot of play I could move it up and down and spin it as well. I asked one of my friends and he said that I might have gotten the wrong springs or my coils are set too low which is why I'm losing the preload. Can someone maybe take a picture or tell me what the SKU is for their springs on their set-up? Any help is much appreciated!
