Coilover installation questions
Coilover installation questions
How to get access to the strut/springs in the rear area? I remember when I got my springs installed the guy only accessed the rear through the trunk.
DIYing with friends right now. So fast help would be great!

I took all the clips out, thanks guys. At the final stretch atm, got 3 coils one but this one bolt won't thread on. It's probably bc the last shop who last installed my springs 2 yrs ago stripped the thing the bolt hugs onto, with their air tools

Install finished at 10 last night..talk about a nightmare when we were 3/4 of the way done with the install. Took 2 hours for that stupid bolt to thread onto where it goes, after going macguyver on it.
Things to mention, initial drop was slammed but I was rubbing so bad! Adjusted two more times and I'm still rubbing but not as bad, so adjustments will be bad asap.
When I drove home on the highway u noticed a vibration n rattle at high speeds around 60-80mph..any suggestio

When I drove home on the highway I noticed vibration n rattle at high speeds in the front wheels around 60-80mph..any suggestions of what this could be? Also the rear rubbed only when I hit non-level surface which is plentiful in NY.
Adjustments will def be made, I didn't even think I would put the coils on yesterday. Time was a big issue at the end, with the ride height adjustments.

Take the wheels off and mount them again. This time pay more careful attention to how centered the bolts are in the wheel before tightening and make sure to use the star pattern when torquing.
