    help! unsure on coilover parts.

    my egay coilovers came in the mail today, and ive never installed thesed..ive searched and i cant find out the answers to this.

    i already read up on how to install and stuff, just nothing explained what these parts were:






    i took a guess on where the large rubber rings would go, because we cant have metal upon metal of course. so is this right as to where they go??



    ^^^ones in bewtween the spring and the perch, and the other is in between the perches, just incase you couldnt tell from the pic.

    Yea that's where it's gonna go. Your rear end is gonna be slammed, you should have conferred with the CB7 council on your purchase.

      hmm

      i readup on coilovers like this and all i got bad out of it was the roughness of the ride

      i didnt realize that i would be slamming the rear

        alrighty, so i have got the rubber rings figured out, to fit on the strut so the sleeve fits more snug

        alright thats out of the way

        but i have some more questions

        i heard about how the come up very short whe installed, until yuo get the car back on the ground

        im hoping the highest setting on these isnt too low for me

        any pointers on install or anything?



        i need all the advice i can get plz

          On the back go as high as you can...for the front, I guess use your own discretion. The springs are so short you can just raise up the car and adjust it to how you want. Also, use a ruler and measure the ride height from the fender to the center of the wheel on a level surface. Front to back doesn't have to be the same but the side to side should be close.

                alrighty..ill be sure to, it jsut might be odd becaues we're tearing/rebuilding the left side right now, so after that its the right side

                so you can see one side of the car with the egays

                lol

                i could take a pic showing how much shorter they are than stock springs..it is honestly ridiculous
