why calling my name again

i know for a fact that on the sc430, you NEED to flip the end links to the other side, coz' if you dont', it will rub against a bolt on the suspension.

but i don't recall reading that on the GS. i can try to see on my gs4 and see if i can find out the answer

 

bt430's public profile says SC430. So it sounds like rominl's hunch is right. The installation on that thread must be on a SC430.

EDIT: And the thread is in the SC430 forum. Looks like a false alarm, corkycal. Looks like you're being very careful and methodical. You'll be fine.

 

ahhh, sigh of relief..........

yes jellybean, todd was referring to SC models. I'm glad I did it right and this brings this thread to a closure.

thanks jellybean and rominl.. you guys are the best!!!!

 

Henry, we call you because you're "see fu"

congrats on your new toy.. your install is perfect , thefronts are a direct swap over your rear mount is perfect , just make sure to tighten the rear sway link using the allen key inside the bolt while turning the nut with a 14mm wrench for if its not tight it will come loose quickly.. i see you have put it in the neutral position.. if you are a awake driver , you can put it in the position closest to the bar the aggressive setting and you will be for a real treat around corners , but be careful , the *** end will whip around on that setting..


now you need to finish off your susp with some toms pieces , the 6piece is a requirement and a lower control brace to tie everything together and then you can fool arounf with some of those M series out there

great job bro

 

man, i am indeed the "see fu" for a lot of people, haha.... damn

anyway, i checked my car, no need to flip the front, just like wht ed said. todd did the install on my car so you know it's right.

 

I hope it's not too late for this, but I'm compelled to mention something because of the mention of jack-stands in one of the earlier posts.

I'm about 98% positive that you should only tighten you're nuts and bolts to the torque settings when ALL 4 WHEELS are on the ground. True for most suspension related hardware, save for shocks.

 

ed,

thanks, i've waited long enough for these. the cornering is great! doesn't feel like a boat anymore.

 

All my suspension braces (including the sways) were installed on a lift. It would be pretty hard to crawl under the car to torque the bolts with the wheels on the ground.

 

let's just say it's impossible for anyone to craw under my car (and a lot of other members' cars) when it's on the ground. with less than 5 inches of clearance? forget it

everything is torqued on the lift in my case too
