Does anyone know the limit on how far you can adjust Megan EZ Street coilovers? Not going lower... but the upper height limit?
I am currently quite low up front and when I put on my snow tires, I want to raise the car up. When looking at the hole on the shock body, I can already see the threads. Does anyone know how far past that I can safely adjust them?
Do you know what that would look like if I am just adjusting the coilover while it is on the car?
It doesn't look like there is any sort of physical stop mechanism, and I am worried that if I keep raising it, I will run out of enough threads to properly support the weight. I am fairly certain the bottom of the black threads inside the silver cylinder are right at the little view hole, and I have maybe a half finger gap above my tire.
Sorry to ask but why would you raise it to stock like height when you run a coil set up?? Don't you want to lower it?
I think you can raise it all the way up to 3 fingers gap like the stock like height without problem.
Not to stock height, but right now my front is lower than where it was with H&R springs and I would like it about the same to avoid scraping my bumper in parking lots. Also, for winter I would like a little more ground clearance.
But based on the current height of my car and where the threads are, it seemed like there's no way I could go to a 3 finger gap.
I have the same concern like you do lol. That is why I still stayed with lower springs. I think you can have 1-2 finger gap in front like you have on your H&R. That is definitely doable. The default setting on coil is at least 1 inch lower i think. The thing about coil is that the shock is shorter than the normal shocks to compensate for less travel for the suspension.
It just seems weird that there's no stopper or way to physically stop from raising the coil past its limits. I don't know if that little view window is meant to be the limit, or if you can go beyond that point...
