so the shock's full extend length is limiting the height of the car? dang... your rear tire is going to go airborne when you go over a bump... hope you have true LSD.

hahahaha.

If you have a hard time turning the collars on the springs, put the wheels back on so the suspension has more weight. You can also shake the springs to see if they are loose.

victory dance owt owt.... owt owt lol... anyways after messing around with the shocks which didnt do crap lol, so i was gonna just put back the eibachs in the rear... and keep the megan shock... ghetto right? lol but then i thought about making a spacer and make it sit on top of the adjustment like a hat.... but that would be to much work and to much time...and when the megans break imma end up HAVING to get megans again.... so then when i was about to go with the desperate idea of putting the eibachs on lol then i saw it...

it just hit me like a big jet plane.... the old eibachs used a spacer on the top portion of the spring that looks sorta like a cone... it was removed because when you use the megans thats where the adjustment part will sit.... wouldnt you guys know? it fit the bottom portion of the megans and the part on the car were the spring sits...

instant spacer

you guys dont know how happy that big *** gap made me feel... now i can actually adjust the rear and go lower

cant wait till i break these babies in... and adjust everything to its final specs.....
