Default Re: Finally!!

Is there a how-to in the solutions thread that I missed. I need to get lower as well.
The rear is easy, I have no clue for the front. Thanks

I believe it’s in the “Solutions” sticky at the top of this section. Can’t imagine it not being in there.

Well, apparently it’s not.
Try this one...

I’ve spoken to a number of people on this. The consensus seems to be, cut the upper spring bushings Down to about 1/4 inch. Don’t bother with gluing in the aftermarket shims, use the cut down bushings as is. Remove the Aluminum shims and move them to the bottom of the mounting brackets. Cut down the mounting brackets by about 1/2 an inch or more to match the height of the remaining bushings and spring. Then bolt it up. Works great. That’s exactly what we did with Tony’s car here in this thread.

Thanks for the tip. Front is pretty involved. Sounds like a project for next winter. Not a fan of coilovers.
