ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    suspension???

    i have a combination of tokico blue struts with dropzone springs it bottoms out with the slightest bump on the road and i am wondering if the spring is the problem i am thinking about getting the eibach sportline springs. i want 2 know if i will have the same problem or going with the eibach will cure the problem any help will be greatly be appreciated

    You have a pic of how low your car is by chance? It might not be your setup bottoming out but actually your control arm hitting your inside fender wall. Might need to trim your control arm a little.

      questions:
      1) How old are the Tokico HP dampers?
      2) How low do you have the dropzone springs?

      most likely, the HP dampers are not strong enough for the extra low dropzone springs. The Eibach Sportline springs should do wonders.

        What'd you do with the bump stops when you installed them?

            yeah the Tokico HP dampers won't be able to handle that drop.

            the Tokico recommends using HP's on mild springs like Tein H-Tech, Eibach Sportline and such.

              Sportlines are like 2"-2.25" drop. ive seen a cb in person with them on. there as low as dropzones.

              if your going to go with a drop, go with neuspeed or h&r, because the maximum drop on them is 1.7" which is the best combo with Tokicos.

                The Tokico HP spring perch is about .5in lower than stock, so that will lower the ride height.

                In order of increasing aggressiveness:

                Tein
                H-Tech 1.5in 224 lbs/in (F) 1.1in 151 lbs/in (R) - Great with sway bars and strong shocks Tokico HP. My setup.

                Sprint Performance 1.50 (F) 1.50 (R)

                Neuspeed Sportline 1.75 (F) & 1.5 (R)

                Eibach Sportline 1.8 (F) & 1.7 (R) Part# 4.1140

                  in this picture the car is lowered on Kybs/Sportlines. They're the same as my dropzones.

                    i have had this problem before, most likely it is your upper control arm. you should check that out.
